2 to the second power means 2x2 (also written as 2^2) which equals 4. The big number is what you’re actually multiplying and the small number at the top (exponent/power) is how many times you’re multiplying it.

pretty much it means you take 2 and multiply it by two

or for example; 3 to the second power is 3 multiplied by three

pretty much the number multiplied by itself
