Work in general is given by W=F·d where F is the force vector and d is the displacement vector.  The dot symbol is the dot product which is a measure of how parallel two vectors are.  It can be replaced by the cosine of the angle between the two vectors and the vectors replaced by their magnitudes.  If F and d are parallel then the angle is zero and the cosine is unity.  So in this case work can be defined as the product of the magnitudes of the force and distance:
W=Fd

What is one watt ? Write the relation of watt with kilowatt , megawatt , and horsepower .​
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

The watt (the power) is equal to the relationship between the work and the time in which that work is performed.

P = W/t

where:

W = work [J] (units of Joules)

t = time [s].

Now 1000 [W] are equal to 1 [kW]

And 1000000 [W] are equal to 1 [MW]

The horsepower is the unit of power in the imperial system of units.

And 745.7 [W] are equal to 1 [Hp]
