Power is a physical quantity that measures the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred. It is a scalar quantity and its standard unit of measurement is the watt (W), which is defined as the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred when a force of one newton is applied over a distance of one meter per second.

Here are some examples of power in real-world scenarios:

Electrical appliances: Power is used to describe the amount of energy consumed by electrical appliances, such as light bulbs, computers, and refrigerators.

Vehicles: Power is an important factor in determining the performance of vehicles, such as cars and airplanes. The power output of an engine is used to determine its acceleration, top speed, and fuel efficiency.

Industrial machinery: Power is a key consideration in the design and operation of industrial machinery, such as conveyor belts, pumps, and generators. The power output of these machines is used to determine their throughput, efficiency, and maintenance requirements.

The SI unit of Power is watt [ W ]
Total number of units: base units (37) - derived units (66,260)
