Power is, summarized, how fast something is done using energy. More specifically, power is the amount of energy transferred or converted per unit time.

To determine power, you use the following formula:


P=(W)/(Δt)

(formatting is messed up, the denominator is Δt)

P - power

W - work

Δt - elapsed time

Hope this helps, have a wonderful day :D
