Problem

A 50 kg50\,\text{kg} cart is initially at rest on a track with negligible friction. A motor mounted on the cart delivers a constant mechanical power of 500 W500\,\text{W} to the cart for the first 8.0 s8.0\,\text{s}. How far does the cart travel during this time interval? (a) 34 m34\,\text{m} (b) 68 m68\,\text{m} (c) 1.0×102 m1.0\times10^{2}\,\text{m} (d) 51 m51\,\text{m}
