equation for power

power = work done/time taken

New cards
6

definition of power

the rate of energy transfer/the rate of doing work

New cards
7

definition of work done

  • work done on an object is the energy you put in (lift, stretch or speed up an object)

  • the energy gained can be in the form of:

    • GPE

    • kinetic energy

    • work

    • elastic potential energy

    • etc.
