Problem

A trolley travels in a straight line with a constant speed of 2 m s−12\,\text{m\,s}^{-1}. A horizontal force along the direction of motion varies with time according to F(t)=10t2  NF(t)=10t^{2}\;\text{N}, where tt is in seconds. The force acts from t=0t=0 to t=3 st=3\,\text{s}. (i) Compute the work done by the force during this interval. (ii) Find the average power developed by the force over the same interval.
