JEE MainPhysicsWork Power and EnergyMCQ+4 / −1
A body of mass 4 kg is placed on a plane at a point having coordinate . Under the action of force , it moves to a new point Q having coordinates in 4 sec . The average power and instanteous power at the end of 4 sec are in the ratio of :
- A4 : 3
- B13 : 6
- C1 : 2
- D6 : 13

Correct answer: 12 : 25
- Given data
- Mass of body:
- Initial position:
- Final position after s:
- Force:
- Time taken: s
We need the ratio:
- Displacement from to
- Average power
Average power is
Work done by constant force:
So,
Hence,
- Find acceleration
Using Newton's second law,
Thus,
- Find initial velocity
Use
Given s,
Now,
So,
Therefore,
- Velocity at the end of 4 s
So,
- Instantaneous power at s
Instantaneous power is
Thus,
- Required ratio
So the required ratio is
- Comparison with options
Given options are:
- A:
- B:
- C:
- D:
Our derived ratio does not match any option.
- Check stored answer
Stored correct answer: D ()
But our calculated answer is , so I do not agree with the stored answer.
A likely reason is that the question/options may contain a typo or some intended assumption is missing. Under the standard interpretation with constant force and motion under that force, the ratio is definitively .
