    This document discusses measuring power using a gasoline engine. It covers the objectives of understanding power measurement, the factors that influence engine power like RPM and torque, and methods of measuring power including dynamometer testing. Dynamometer testing precisely measures torque and rotational speed to assess power in a controlled way and optimize engine performance. Horsepower is defined as the ability to do 33,000 foot-pounds of work in one minute. Accurate power measurement helps improve efficiency, evaluate performance, and ensure compliance with emissions regulations.

    Horsepower is the measure of energy or work needed to lift, move,
    create, or push a weight of 33,000 pounds by one foot in one
    minute. Put simply, one horsepower is equivalent to performing
    33,000 foot-pounds of work within a minute.
