What is metric horsepower used for?

Metric horsepower measures mechanical power transfer rate and is commonly used for rating engines in cars, motorcycles, and industrial motors.

Why convert horsepower to microjoule/second?

This conversion translates larger power units to very small power units, useful in electronics, photonics, and energy-harvesting scenarios.

Are conversion results easy to handle?

Because of the scale difference, converted values can be very large and should be handled carefully to avoid misinterpretation.
