A body is moving unidirectionally under the influence of a constant power source. Its displacement in time t is proportional to :
- At2/3
- Bt3/2
- Ct
- Dt2
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
-
Given: The body moves in one direction under a constant power source.
-
Use the definition of power: Since work done changes kinetic energy,
-
Since is constant,
-
But . Also, another direct relation for power is and with , Rearranging,
-
Integrate both sides:
-
Assuming the body starts from rest at , we get . Hence,
-
Now displacement is
-
Therefore, displacement is proportional to
-
Option check:
- A: ❌
- B: ✅
- C: ❌
- D: ❌
So the correct option is B.
