The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the relationship between distance, time, and acceleration based on the information given. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the relationship**: The problem states that the distance \( s \) covered by a moving body is directly proportional to the square of the time \( t \). This can be mathematically expressed as: \[ s = k t^2 \] where \( k \) is a constant of proportionality. 2. **Finding Velocity**: To find the velocity, we differentiate the distance \( s \) with respect to time \( t \): \[ v = \frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(k t^2) \] Using the power rule of differentiation, we get: \[ v = k \cdot 2t = 2kt \] 3. **Finding Acceleration**: Next, we differentiate the velocity \( v \) with respect to time \( t \) to find the acceleration \( a \): \[ a = \frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(2kt) \] Since \( 2k \) is a constant, the differentiation gives: \[ a = 2k \cdot \frac{d}{dt}(t) = 2k \cdot 1 = 2k \] 4. **Conclusion**: The acceleration \( a \) is a constant value \( 2k \). Therefore, the acceleration of the body remains constant. ### Final Answer: The acceleration of the body is constant.
