Power is work done in a paticular time.
Work is distance times force.

My 12 year old son likely has more power than I when it comes to moving 10 pounds. He could grab 10 pounds and run faster than I could to cross a finish line. I would have more power if we had to move 100 pounds. I would likely cross the finish line first.
Almost like compareing oranges and apples.
Sort of like having an oxen and a horse pulling a paticular plow. At a point they will be able to pull the plow at a particular speed and be neck and neck. Then either make the plow larger or smaller and one or the other will have the advantage.
Consider a diesel a muscle man and a gas engine an thin athlete that can run fast.
Which as more power as you can see it in different situations.
