Power is the rate at which work is done.
Since you know that v = d/t:
Power is measured in J/s or Watts (W)

Practice Problem 1
A 3 kg block is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. The block is moved 8 m in 2 seconds by the application of a 12 N horizontal force. What is the average power developed while moving the block?
Practice Problem 2
A 4.0x103 W motor applies a force of 8x102 N to move a boat at a constant speed. How far does the boat move in 16 seconds?
Practice Problem 3
A motor having a power rating of 500 W is used to lift an object weighing 100 N. How much time does the motor take to lift the object a vertical distance of 10 m?
Practice Problem 4
What is the average power developed by a motor as it lifts a 400 kg mass at constant speed through a vertical distance of 10 m in 8 seconds?
Practice Problem 6
If the time required for a student to swim 500m is doubled, the power developed by the student would beHalvedDoubledQuarteredQuadrupled
Final Thought…
A motor having a maximum power rating of 8.1x104 W is used to operate an elevator with a weight of 1.8x104 N. What is the maximum weight the motor can lift at an average speed of 3 m/s?
