Question

When describing how power and work are similar you would want to mention that

Answer 1

\[P=\frac{dW}{dt} \approx \text{change \in work \in a set time}=\text{energy tranferred \in set time}\]

Answer 2

The last equality is obvious, as\[W=U(1)-U(2)=- \Delta U\]Where U is the potential energy.

Answer 3

Does anyone know how to stop the \ from appearing in LaTex when \text{ } is being used?

Answer 4

Simply type only one '\' at the beginning or remove those added automatically :

\( P=\frac{dW}{dt} \approx \text{change in work in a set time}=\text{energy tranferred in set time} \)
