Answer:

Watt

Step-by-step explanation:

The metric unit of power is called a watt. One watt of power is equivalent to one joule of work being performed in one second. The joule is the unit of measurement of work or energy, and the Newton is the unit of measure for force.

Power is the RATE at which energy changes or flows.

The unit of energy is the Joule, so a unit of power is the Joule/second.

That unit has the special name "Watt".

Your question is not necessarily a question. It's also a statement, You could write

"Watt's the basic unit of the measurement of power".
