Kinetic energy of a mass m travelling through some distance d, starting from rest, under action of a constant force F is directly proportional to

A

Independent of m

B

Directly proportional to `sqrt(m)`

C

Inversely proportional to `sqrt(m)`

D

Directly proportional to m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
K.E. of body = Work done = F.x
Since F and x are fixed `:.` K.E. is also fixed.
