Im 5'4 and I want to get prom shoes that have a 4 3/4 inch heel (no platform). My prom date is 5'8. How tall will the shoes make me because I'm super scared to purchase them and end up being taller him! [Editor Rob: if they don't have much platform then you won't really get that much over 3 inches.Editor Rob: you can easily buy a platform heel (if they are advertised in the shop as 5.5 or 6 inch) and still be shorter than him, they might give you 4-4.5 inches but of course your date would likely be standing 6ft 2 in his shoes, and you at most 6ft 0.5, so still a bit shorter.
Brake horsepower (bhp) is the measure of an engine's horsepower before the loss in power caused by the gearbox, alternator, differential, water pump, and other auxiliary components such as power steering pump, muffled exhaust system, etc.
It's an attempt to make a vehicle sound more powerful by rating it in BHP (British horse power). The most popular unit of Power is the âHorse Powerâ, which from ancient times was the rate of work an âaverage horseâ could do.
