Understanding Power: Calculating Energy Transfer Rate and Power

The video tutorial explains how to define and calculate the rate at which energy is transferred, using examples like a light bulb, TV, car engine, and lift motor. It introduces the power equation, P = E/t, where P is power in watts, E is energy in joules, and t is time in seconds. The tutorial demonstrates calculations for energy transfer over different time periods and provides practical examples to illustrate the concepts.
