Horsepower vs. Torque ?
|
03-06-2015, 02:13 PM
Look at any dyno graph and torque and hp always cross at 5250 rpm. Torque is twisting force - newton meters or lb ft, gets you off the line and pushes a lot of weight. HP describes how much work is done over a given period of time, or the rate which work is done, so speed. If I knew more about physics, I might be able to explain why the two cross paths at 5250 rpm. Maybe a trip through the googlesphere will help...
