Work, Power and EnergyHard

Question

A body is moved along a straight line by a machine delivering constant power. The distance moved by the body in time t is proportional to

Options

A.t1/2
B.t3/4
C.t3/2
D.t2

Solution

P = constnat
∴ Work done in time t.
       W = Pt
From work-energy theorem, net work done is change in kinetic energy. Therefore,
mv2 = Pt
or        v = t1/2
integrating, we get s = t3/2
