A particle of mass $M$ starting from rest undergoes uniform acceleration. If the speed acquired in time $T$ is $v$, the power delivered to the particle is
  1. $\frac{\mathrm{Mv}^2}{\mathrm{~T}}$
  2. $\frac{1}{2} \frac{\mathrm{Mv}^2}{\mathrm{~T}^2}$
  3. $\frac{\mathrm{Mv}^2}{\mathrm{~T}^2}$
  4. $\frac{1}{2} \frac{\mathrm{Mv}^2}{\mathrm{~T}}$

Solution

The kinetic energy of particle $=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{Mv}^2$ $\begin{aligned} \text { Power } & =\frac{\text { Energy }}{\text { Time }} \\ \mathrm{P} & =\frac{1}{2} \frac{\mathrm{Mv}^2}{\mathrm{~T}} \end{aligned}$
