Question on miles per Kw

[Stoaty]

When you are talking about batteries driving electric motors, the physics definitions of power and energy are the ones to use. It appears that everyone else in this thread understands that. "How can you be so obtuse? Is it deliberate?" **

You did not answer any of my questions. Are you intentiinally ontuse?

From a language perspective i am using the word correctly.

Tell me why i am not.

Ok:

I read the gom as a prediction of how far it thinks i can go. Ie its ability to do something.

The definition of power is the ability to do something.

No, "work" is the ability to do something (another name for work is "energy"). Power is the rate at which something can be done. You can use an amorphous colloquial definition of "power", as in "political power" or some such thing, to try to claim otherwise, but it has no meaning in reference to the GOM or the miles that an EV can travel.

You did not answer any of my questions. Are you intentiinally ontuse?

You keep repeating this yet it is flagrantly false since the questions have been answered, accurately, over and over before, to no avail. So, what's the point? If it makes you happy to think you've "won", fine. Others here know otherwise.

And no the definition of power is the ability to do something
