Question
Chapter 9, Problem 12E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The difference between energy and power is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Power is defined as the energy used per unit time to do some work. SI unit of power is watt (W) which is joule/second.

The power that arises by utilizing the chemical or physical resources for providing heat and light or carrying out various processes is known as energy. The SI unit of energy is joule.

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed, it can be converted to other forms.
