Study Guide Overview

This study guide covers electric power in AP Physics 2, focusing on the flow of energy in circuits. Key concepts include the definition of power, the core equation P = IΔV and its derived forms (P = I²R and P = (ΔV)²/R), the relationship between power and brightness, and circuit analysis with series and parallel resistors. It also provides practice questions and exam tips.

Question 1 of 10

Electric power is best described as: ⚡

the total energy used

the rate of energy transfer

the total charge in a circuit

the resistance in a circuit
