How to find horse power?

If mass times distance gives ft lbs can this be converted to HP by dividing by 33,000? Or did we only have momentum in the first place, which can or can't be converted to HP?
Alternatively does a calculation of HP require the distance to be in lift against gravity?

Answer:
1 lb = 1lbm x g = 32.2 lbm.ft / sec^2
MOMENTUM = MASS X VELOCITY = Ibm X ft/sec
FORCE = RATE OF CHANGE OF MOMENTUM . = ibm x ft /sec^2
WORK = FORCE X DISTANCE (in the direction of force), ft- Ibs
WEIGHT = MASS X ACCELERATION DUE TO GRAVITY =32.2 x ibm. ft/sec^2.
ALL ABOVE ARE VECTOR QUANTITIES AND HAVE DIRECTION.
1 HP = 550 ft-Ibs /sec = 33000 ft-lbs / min.
so , power = work done in ft.ibs /min / 33000 HP

Power has to include a time element. So you can't divde ft lbs and get horsepower. Distance against gravity isn't necessary.

go too nema and ckeck there charts
