Detailed Solution

Since the particle is moving along a circle.
Normal acceleration, v2R=kt2 or v=tkR
Tangential acceleration, at=dvdt=ddt(tkR)
Tangential component of resultant force Ft=mat=mkR
Power developed by normal force  Fn is always zero because its direction is always perpendicular to the direction of motion of the particle So, power developed by tangential force alone
P=Ftv=mkRtkR=mkRt
Power developed by resultant force is used to increase kinetic energy of the body.
Initial K.E at t = 0 , E0  = 0
K.E at time t,E=12mv2=12mkRt2
Average power developed = Average rate of increase of K.E
Average power =EE0t=12mkRt
