The formula to calculate the Average Power is:
\[ P_{\text{avg}} = \frac{W}{t} \]
Where:
Average power is the total energy transferred or work done divided by the time interval over which the energy transfer or work occurs. It provides a measure of how much energy is used or transferred per unit of time.
Consider an example where the total work done and time interval are:
Using the formula to calculate the Average Power:
\[ P_{\text{avg}} = \frac{500}{10} = 50 \, \text{W} \]
This means that the average power for this example is 50 W.
