Hello!

The answer is: C. work and time

Why?

We need to remember the mechanical power formula. This formula states that power is the amount of work applied during a determined time interval.

Mechanical power is equal to the division of Work by the time while that work is applied.

[tex]Power=\frac{Work}{Time}[/tex]

For example, if we want to calculate the power in Watt, the formula will be :

[tex]Power=\frac{Joule}{Second} =Watt[/tex]

We have another unit of measurement such as Horsepower (Hp)

[tex]Hp=\frac{Lbf.ft}{min}[/tex]

Have a nice day!
