What is the formula for instantaneous power if I have velocity and force? And what is the formula in general?

Instantaneous power is the power of a ny object at an instant.
if you differentiate work done w.r.t time it will be the instantaneous power. If the givn velocity is instantaneous the
power=F*v
as p=w.d/time taken =force*dis./time
