Hey I'm trying to teach myself physics using H&R. Unfortunately I didn't take trig physics in high school so every concept is new to me. But I have taken a year of calc (up to but not including Multivariable) so i understand most of what I read (at least superficially). But i have to ruminate over things before I understand them (who doesn't i guess). I'm trying to understand if a force is constant and there is a displacement over time, then will the power increase with time or will the power be constant. In other words, will the scalar quantity u get by multiplying displacement with force always turn into the same value once its divided by time elapsed? Or does the scalar value increase faster than time passes, thus yielding an increase in power over time even with a constant force? thanks for your help
