It doesn't help that media often portrays this incorrectly. Take the movie Lightyear, for example. Sure, it's a sci fi movie for kids so it doesn't have to be scientifically accurate, but the way they portray it is completely nonsensical. They show Buzz Lightyear trying to reach light speed in his space ship. Each time he flies around the sun, he goes faster, but more time has passed on the planet he left by the time he gets back. In reality, the faster you go, the less time it takes you to get somewhere (from some external reference of time). It's just your experience of time that changes.
Interstellar is at least a little bit closer (ignoring the whole time travel part)
DST would lead to less light in the morning, more in the afternoon, if they keep it year round. Winter is already standard time.
Personally, I prefer DST for the additional light in the afternoon. Maybe the start time of every school and employer could be changed to be an hour earlier with Standard Time, but sounds a lot easier to just keep DST year round.
Typically the horsepower we measure in cars is the engine power. The angular velocity in that equation is the engine RPM, and the power is the rate of work (force over distance) that engine is capable of outputting at a given RPM. Because it's based on the engine RPM, this doesn't depend on the gear ratio.
When we talk about torque, it can be measured either at the crank (engine torque) or wheels (wheel torque). Wheel torque represents the amount of force applied by the wheel to the road, and depends on the gear - a lower gear will output more torque at a given RPM than a higher one. This will result in greater acceleration.
