Power = work done / time taken
P = W / t
For example...
A motor transfers 4.8kJ of useful energy in 2 minutes. Find it's power output...
As work done is the same as energy transferred, we know that 4.8kJ of work was done. Therefore...
4800 / (2 x 60) = 4.8 / 120 = 40 W
NOTE: remember to convert kJ to J and minutes into seconds.
