Abstract: In the paper we consider images of finite simple projective special linear and unitary groups under power words. In particular, we show that if $GsimeqPS{L}_n^{v}arepsilon(q)$, then for every power words of type $x^M$ there exist constant $c$ and $N$ such that $vertomega(G)vert>cfracvertGvertn$ whenether $vertGvert>N$.
