What do you mean by the expression "energy power"???
They are two separate things and should not be confused as one.
POWER is the rate at which ENERGY is transferred from one form to another (or used) per unit of time. For example, a glacial flow has a very large amount of energy (stored energy, potential energy) but it's movement is very slow so it is not very powerful. (OK it changes the landscape, moves rocks, etc. but over thousand and thousands of years, therefore at a slow rate = low power).
POWER is also a measure of the rate at which WORK is done (work is the transfer of potential energy to kinetic, e.g. diesel in a motor).
My point is that I have never seen the expression "energy power" before and I believe it is incorrect.
Total energy - OK
Total power - OK
But they are different things. |
