Correct answer: D

  1. Given data
  • Mass of body: m=2 kgm=2\,\text{kg}m=2kg
  • Force: F⃗=(6t i^+6t2 j^) N\vec F=(6t\,\hat i+6t^2\,\hat j)\,\text{N}F=(6ti^+6t2j^​)N
  • The body begins to move, so initial velocity is zero: v⃗(0)=0\vec v(0)=0v(0)=0

We need the instantaneous power: P=F⃗⋅v⃗P=\vec F\cdot \vec vP=F⋅v


  1. Find acceleration using Newton's second law

a⃗=F⃗m\vec a=\frac{\vec F}{m}a=mF​

So, a⃗=12(6t i^+6t2 j^)\vec a=\frac{1}{2}(6t\,\hat i+6t^2\,\hat j)a=21​(6ti^+6t2j^​) a⃗=(3t i^+3t2 j^)\vec a=(3t\,\hat i+3t^2\,\hat j)a=(3ti^+3t2j^​)

Thus,

  • ax=3ta_x=3tax​=3t
  • ay=3t2a_y=3t^2ay​=3t2

  1. Integrate acceleration to get velocity

Since v⃗(0)=0\vec v(0)=0v(0)=0,

For the xxx-component: vx=∫3t dt=32t2v_x=\int 3t\,dt=\frac{3}{2}t^2vx​=∫3tdt=23​t2

For the yyy-component: vy=∫3t2 dt=t3v_y=\int 3t^2\,dt=t^3vy​=∫3t2dt=t3

Hence, v⃗=(32t2 i^+t3 j^)\vec v=\left(\frac{3}{2}t^2\,\hat i+t^3\,\hat j\right)v=(23​t2i^+t3j^​)


  1. Compute power

Instantaneous power is P=F⃗⋅v⃗P=\vec F\cdot \vec vP=F⋅v

Substitute: P=(6t i^+6t2 j^)⋅(32t2 i^+t3 j^)P=(6t\,\hat i+6t^2\,\hat j)\cdot \left(\frac{3}{2}t^2\,\hat i+t^3\,\hat j\right)P=(6ti^+6t2j^​)⋅(23​t2i^+t3j^​)

Now dot product: P=6t(32t2)+6t2(t3)P=6t\left(\frac{3}{2}t^2\right)+6t^2(t^3)P=6t(23​t2)+6t2(t3) P=9t3+6t5P=9t^3+6t^5P=9t3+6t5

So the required power is (9t3+6t5) W\boxed{(9t^3+6t^5)\,\text{W}}(9t3+6t5)W​


  1. Match with options
  • A: (3t3+6t5)(3t^3+6t^5)(3t3+6t5) ❌
  • B: (9t5+6t3)(9t^5+6t^3)(9t5+6t3) ❌
  • C: (6t4+9t5)(6t^4+9t^5)(6t4+9t5) ❌
  • D: (9t3+6t5)(9t^3+6t^5)(9t3+6t5) ✅

Therefore, the correct option is: D\boxed{\text{D}}D​


  1. Comparison with stored correct answer

Stored correct answer: D\text{D}D

Our derived answer is also D\text{D}D, so they agree.
