powerfulness
Raw commanding force
Powerfulness is the quality of being powerful—possessing strength, influence, or force.
The word is grammatically correct but rarely used, since power itself serves as the noun form: the power of the storm rather than the powerfulness of the storm.
When powerfulness does appear, it often emphasizes the abstract quality or degree: The sheer powerfulness of her voice silenced the room.
