The output power of a motor is the product of the torque that the motor generates and the angular velocity of its output shaft. The power involved in moving a ground vehicle is the product of the traction force on the wheels and the velocity of the vehicle. In classical mechanics, as quantified from a stationary frame of reference, the motive power of a jet-propelled vehicle is the product of the engine thrust and the velocity of the vehicle (note that by this definition, a propelled vehicle hovering at stationary elevation over a gravitational body, where the upward thrust exactly cancels the downward acceleration of gravity, the motive power is zero). The rate at which a light bulb converts electrical energy into light and heat is measured in watts – the electrical energy used per unit of time.
