Many tasks require you to do a certain amount of work. But the same amount of work can be done in a short period of time or over a longer period of time. Power describes how fast work is done. Power is the rate at which work is done. This video explains everything you need to know about what power is in physics and how to calculate the power exerted. Five different example problems will show you how to calculate the power output, the amount of work done and the time it take for a given power output. Everything is explained step by step.
