Apparently you did not understand this on the first post I made. Yes power is the rate of work. But work is almost never used, rather the rate of work or power is used. Joules is rarely used ever in SI units for mechanical work. Rather Kilo Meters are used instead. But it is almost always given a rate or power instead. Not the force but the total weight pushed and meters traveled.
