The unit of power is
Watts
(W).
True
Power can also be expressed using force and
velocity
If a motor performs 1200 Joules of work in 4 seconds, what is its power output?
300 W
What is the power output if a motor performs 1200 Joules of work in 4 seconds?
300 W
Match the variable with its symbol:
Power ↔️ P
Work ↔️ W
Energy ↔️ E
Time ↔️ t
If a motor performs 1200 Joules of work in 4 seconds, what is its power output?
300 W
Match the variable with its unit:
Power ↔️ Watts (W)
Work ↔️ Joules (J)
Velocity ↔️ Meters per second (m/s)
Force ↔️ Newtons (N)
In the power formula, what does 'W' represent?
Work done
1 Watt is equal to 1 Joule per
second
.
True
F
is force in
Newtons
Match the variable with its unit:
Power ↔️ Watts (W)
Work ↔️ Joules (J)
Force ↔️ Newtons (N)
Velocity ↔️ m/s
What is the power output if a motor performs 1200 Joules of work in 4 seconds?
300 Watts
1 W = 1
J/s
What does power describe in terms of energy transfer?
The rate
Arrange the steps to calculate power using work and time:
1️⃣ Identify the work done in Joules
2️⃣ Identify the time taken in seconds
3️⃣ Divide the work done by the time taken
The formula for power is
P
= W/t
What is 1 Watt equivalent to?
1 Joule per second
One Watt means one Joule of work is done per
second
.
True
If a motor performs 1500 Joules of work in 5 seconds, its power output is
300
Watts
What is the unit for work or energy in power calculations?
Joules
1 Watt is equal to 1 Joule per
second
.
True
Power is measured in Watts, where 1 Watt equals 1
Joule
per second
Time in power calculations is measured in
seconds
.
True
The formula for power is P = \frac{W}{t}</latex> or
P
=
P =
P
=
E
t
\frac{E}{t}
t
E
True
What does 1 Watt equal in terms of Joules and seconds?
1 Joule per second
Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is
transferred
Match the variable with its symbol:
Power ↔️ P
Work ↔️ W
Energy ↔️ E
Time ↔️ t
In the formula
P
=
P =

, \( F \) represents force in Newtons
What is the symbol for power in physics?
P
Power is measured in
Watts
.
True
What does one Watt represent in terms of work and energy transfer?
One Joule per second
Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred.
True
Power is measured in units of
Watts
Time in power calculations is measured in
seconds
.
True
In the power formula, the symbol \( P \) represents
power
Match the variable with its unit in power calculations:
Power ↔️ Watts
Work ↔️ Joules
Time ↔️ Seconds
Understanding power helps us appreciate how energy is used efficiently in various devices and activities.
True
Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is
transferred
