Power

A body is moving unidirectionally under the influence of a constant power source. Its displacement in time t is proportional to:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Constant power: mvdvdt=P⇒v2=2Pmtmv\dfrac{dv}{dt} = P \Rightarrow v^2 = \dfrac{2P}{m}t, so v∝t1/2v \propto t^{1/2}.
  2. s=∫v dt∝t3/2s = \int v\,dt \propto t^{3/2}
  3. So the answer is (b) t3/2t^{3/2}.
