Power is given by f.vwhere f is force and v is velocity of particle power =kmav=km(dv/dt)v=kmdv x v= kdtintegrating both sides mv^2=ktv is directly proportional to√t

Power =Force*Velocity Power=Const Now multiply 't' both sides So power*time=Energy Const*t=m.a.v.t Const *t=m.dv/dt.(v).t Now by rearrangement Const/m*(dt)=vdv Now integ both sides Const/m*(t)=v^2/2 Therefore V= const *root (t) :)
