STANDARD Physics Power in Mechanics MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11

A body is initially at rest. It undergoes one dimensional motion with constant acceleration. The power delivered to it at time t is proportional to

A

t¹/²

B

t

C

t³/²

D

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

Using the equation of motion v = u + at, where u = 0, we have v = at. Power P is given by P = F × v = (ma) × at = ma²t. Since m and a are constants, P ∝ t.
