  • question_answer
    A particle of mass \[m\] moves with a variable velocity \[v\], which changes with distance covered \[x\] along a straight line as \[v=k\sqrt{x}\], where A: is a positive constant. The work done by all the forces acting on the particle, during the first \[t\] seconds is

    A) \[\frac{m{{k}^{4}}}{{{t}^{2}}}\]

    B) \[\frac{m{{k}^{4}}{{t}^{2}}}{4}\]

    C) \[\frac{m{{k}^{4}}{{t}^{2}}}{8}\]

    D) \[\frac{m{{k}^{4}}{{t}^{2}}}{16}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Given \[v=k\sqrt{x}\] Or \[\frac{dx}{dt}=k\sqrt{x}\]or \[{{x}^{\frac{1}{2}}}dx=k\,dt\] Integrating both sides, we get \[\frac{{{x}^{\frac{1}{2}}}}{\frac{1}{2}}=kt+C;\]Assuming \[x(0)=0\] Therefore, \[C=0\] \[2\sqrt{x}=kt\Rightarrow x=\frac{{{k}^{2}}{{t}^{2}}}{4}\]or \[v=\frac{{{k}^{2}}t}{2}\] Therefore, work done, \[\Delta W=\]Increase in KE \[=\frac{1}{2}m{{v}^{2}}-\frac{1}{2}m{{(0)}^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}m{{\left[ \frac{{{k}^{2}}t}{2} \right]}^{2}}=\frac{1}{8}m{{k}^{4}}{{t}^{2}}\]
