1 hp = 746 watts

2 hp = 1,492 watts

2 hp x 1 hour = 1,492 watt-hours = 1.492 kWh

(Note: The "2 hp" rating on the pump refers to the useful output, that is,

the water that the pump moves. The '1.492 kWh' calculated is simply the

equivalent of 2 hp-hour, expressed in a different unit. The consumption

from the electric utility will be more than that, because no machine is

100% efficient, that is, a machine's useful output work/energy is always

less than the input to it.

To calculate the input energy required to operate this pump at full load

for an hour, divide 1.492 kWh by the efficiency of the pump.)

How many kilowatt hours - KWh - are used to light a 30 watt light bulb for 1 hour?

A kilowatt is 1,000 Watts. 30 Watts is equal to 0.03 kilowatts. A kWh or kilowatt-hour is the rate of electrical usage. It is a measure of kilowatts used per period of time (1 hour). 1 kWh is 1 kilowatt (1,000 watts) for 1 hour. So, multiply your 30 watts (0.03 kilowatts) by 1 hour to get kWh. =0.03 kWh In about 33 hours and 20 minutes, this lamp would use 1 kWh.
