Power is defined as the ability to do work. In other words, it's an ability how fast the energy is being transformed or consumed.

Mathematically power is given as,


P=(W)/(t)

Here, W is the work done, and t is the time.

Therefore, the given statement; power equals work multiplied by time, is false.
