Watts is a unit of power; Joules is a unit of energy. Watts means Joules/second, so you would need to know how long a machine that uses 36 watts (for example, certain light-bulbs) is used.
36 watts is simply 36 Joules per second; this is the same as 2160 Joules per minute, or 129,600 Joules per hour.
Since the electricity bill is measured in kWh instead of Joule (1 kWh = 3,600,000 Ws = 3,600,000 Joule), you might also say that a device that uses 36 watts uses 0.036 kWh every hour.

What is the equation of converting horsepower to joule?
Horsepower is a unit of power, but joules is a unit of energy. To convert horsepower to joules, you need an additional time parameter. One horsepower is about 745.7 watts. So a horsepower-hour is 745.7 watt-hours. One watt-hour is 3600 joules. A horsepower-hour is then 745.7 times 3600 = 2684520 joules.
How do you convert 750kcal to joules?
We searched on-line for about 4 seconds and found a conversion factor:1 Kcal = 4186.8 joules (rounded)That's all we need. Now all we have to do is multiply both sides of the equation by 750:750 Kcal = (750) x (4186.8) = 3,140,100 joules (rounded)
