Answer: Watt, a unit of power is equal to a joule divided by a second

Step-by-step explanation:

Power is defined as the ratio of rate of work done by an object. It is measured in Watt.

Mathematically,


P=(W)/(t)

where,

W = work done by the object. It is measured in Joules

t = time taken by the object. It is measured in seconds

So, the unit of watt is equal to a joule divided by a second.

Hence, Watt, a unit of power is equal to a joule divided by a second
