The dimension of power is energy divided by time. In the International System of Units (SI), the unit of power is the watt (W), which is equal to one joule per second. Other common and traditional measures are horsepower (hp), comparing to the power of a … See more

Power is related to intensity at a radius $${\displaystyle r}$$; the power emitted by a source can be written as: $${\displaystyle P(r)=I(4\pi r^{2}).}$$ See more
