Time to explore Power n n What do we need to know to calculate

Time to explore Power n n What do we need to know to calculate power? What is your force? So if 1 lb=2. 2 kg how much mass do you have? How can we calculate velocity?

On a sheet of paper n n n Calculate your Fg. Now let’s go

On a sheet of paper n n n Calculate your Fg. Now let’s go to the stairs and see who can generate the most power. When we get back calculate your power. This paper is your exit slip. You can’t leave until it’s done.
