Question

define average power​

Answer 1

Average Power

The average power can be calculated after dividing the total work done by the total time taken.

Average Power = Total work done /Total time taken

Power in Terms of Force and Velocity

We know that,

Power = Work /Time

P=W/t

But, Work done = F × s

Substituting the value, we get

P = Fs/t

P = F(s/t)

Since, velocity = s/t, we get

P = Fv

Thus, we can conclude that power can be measured as the product of force and velocity.
