    A body at rest is moved along a straight line by a machine which delivers constant power. The distance moved by the body in time t is proportional to:

    A)  \[{{t}^{1/2}}\]                  

    B)         \[{{t}^{3/4}}\]

    C)  \[t\]                     

    D)         \[{{t}^{3/2}}\]

    E)  \[{{t}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Power \[(P)=[M{{L}^{2}}{{T}^{-3}}]\] \[\therefore \]  \[[{{L}^{2}}]=\frac{P}{[M{{T}^{-3}}]}=[P{{M}^{-1}}{{T}^{3}}]\] As P and M are constant, therefore \[{{L}^{2}}\propto {{T}^{3}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[L\propto {{T}^{3/2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]The distance moved by the body in time t is proportional to\[{{t}^{3/2}}\].
