4-1.Newton's Laws of Motion
easy

The linear momentum $p$ of a body moving in one dimension varies with time according to the equation $p = a + b{t^2}$ where a and b are positive constants. The net force acting on the body is

AA constant
BProportional to ${t^2}$
CInversely proportional to t
DProportional to t

Solution

(d) $F = \frac{{dp}}{{dt}}\bar = \frac{d}{{dt}}(a + b{t^2}) = 2bt$
$\therefore F \propto t$
