Calculating Power
Power is calculated by dividing the amount of work done by the amount of time taken to do the work.
Power = Work / Time
Power = Force ✕ Distance / Time
The unit of power is joule per second (J/s). This unit is also known as the watt (W).
One watt of power is produced when one joule of work is done in one second.
