Answer:
The statements which are true are:
1) A person’s power output limits the amount of work that he or she can do in a given time span.
2) The SI unit of power is the watt.
4) Power can be considered the rate at which work is done.
Explanation:
Power can be defined as the the rate at which the work is done. Mathematically,
where ‘‘ is the amount of work done in time ‘‘.
Also one can perform some work in the expense of the energy that he/she consumes. So alternatively power can also be defined as the rate at which the energy is expended.
The SI unit of work done is Joule. So the unit of power in SI system is
or Watt.
