We know that the power is given by : 

                                                P\ =\ F.v

or                                                    =\ ma.v

or                                                   =\ m\frac{dv}{dt}v

It is given that power is constant, thus :

                                             mv\frac{dv}{dt}\ =\ constant

or                                              vdv\ =\ \frac{C}{m}dt

By integrating both sides, we get

                                                  v\ =\ \left ( \sqrt{\frac{2Ct}{m}} \right )

Also, we can write :

                                                 v\ =\ \frac{dx}{dt}

or                                              \frac{dx}{dt}\ =\ \sqrt{\frac{2C}{m}}t^\frac{1}{2}

By integrating we get the relation :

                                                 x\ \propto \ \ t^\frac{3}{2}
