More power gives more velocity

A constant power is supplied to a rotating disc. Angular velocity 'ω' of disc varies with number of rotations 'n' made by the disc as ω ∝ n^(1/x) . Find the value of 'x'.

Here's a solution in terms of time (starting from rest at t = 0 t = 0 ):

E = P t = β ω 2 ω = σ t 1 / 2 \large{E = P \, t = \beta \, \omega^2 \\ \omega = \sigma \, t^{1/2}}

Determine an expression for θ \theta :

θ = 0 t ω d t = σ 0 t t 1 / 2 d t θ = γ t 3 / 2 \large{\theta = \int_0^t \omega \, dt = \sigma \int_0^t t^{1/2} \, dt \\ \theta = \gamma \, t^{3/2}}

The following is therefore apparent:

ω θ 1 / 3 \large{\omega \propto \theta^{1/3}}
