The document discusses how the word "power" has different meanings in everyday life versus in physics, where it specifically refers to the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred. It explains that the ability to accurately measure power was key in allowing early engineers to develop steam engines and drive the industrial revolution. Finally, it states that measuring power continues to be essential for understanding how to best utilize the energy resources that power the modern world.

Much like energy, the word power is something we hear a
lot. In everyday life it has a wide range of meanings. In
physics however, it has a very specific meaning. It is a measure of the rate at which work is done (or similarly, at which energy is transferred). The ability to accurately measure power was one of the key abilities which allowed early engineers to develop the steam engines which drove the industrial revolution. It continues to be essential for understanding how to best make use of the energy resources which drive the modern world.
work is an activity involving a force on an object and
the distance traversed by the object due to the force. It can be measured by the change in energy. Energy is capacity of doing work.For example if a something has energy of x joule it can perform x joule work. Power is the work done in unit ARTFOLIO JAZZY KHYLE M.QUIAMBAO III -ESCODA MS.ELIGIO
Ang pang-uri ay isang bahagi ng pananalita na binabago ang
isang pangngalan, karaniwang sinasalarawan nito o ginagawang mas partikular ito. Gayon man, hindi kinikilalang uri ng salita sa pangkalahatan ang pang-uri; sa ibang salita, may mga ilang wika ang hindi gumagamit ng mga pang-uri.[] Ang pang-uri ay nagbibigay ng turing sa isang pangngalan o panghalip. Ang mga pinakakinikilalang mga pang-uri ay iyong mga salita katulad ng malaki, matanda at nakakapagod na sinasalarawan ang mga tao, mga lugar, o mga bagay.
