How do i work out how much my power to weight ratio is

for instance i have a vehicle and it weighs 750 kg its BHP is 220 so what is my power to weight Please

 

293.333 (220 /0.75)

 

cheers mate

 

Power to weight ratio is finding out how much power that vehicle would have if it weighed 1000kg's.

So a scooby at 1235kg and 225bhp would be thus...

225/1235 (to give you bhp per kilogram)

then the result * 1000 to give you "per tonne".

182bhp per tonne.

 

How complicated can you make a simple calculation?

Why not divide it by milligrams and then convert it back to a tonne?

If you check my calculation out I just put 0.75 instead of 750kg as the divisor.....

 

Thanks guys i get the idea
