Made it explicitly clear why P doesnt have to be averaged.

| Dec 2, 2013 at 19:54 | comment | added | Danu | @joshphysics fair enough, I'll edit it. Just for the record though, I am of course well aware of the concept of average power, I just thought it was a good idea to make it explicit and clear that it is not relevant in this case. | |
| Dec 2, 2013 at 19:24 | comment | added | user1949350 | Now I'm confused... "P=Fv is an expression that holds between the instantaneous power, the force, and the velocity" Can you please elaborate this a bit more? | |
| Dec 2, 2013 at 19:15 | comment | added | joshphysics | -1: "Power is an instantaneous concept: there is no question of averaging." That's misleading; average power can, in fact, be defined and is a very useful concept. Did you mean to say something like "$P=Fv$ is an expression that holds between the instantaneous power, the force, and the velocity"? | |
