The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the velocities of two particles A and B based on the angles of their displacement-time graphs. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Graphs**: - The displacement-time graph for particle A is inclined at an angle of \(30^\circ\) with the time axis. - The displacement-time graph for particle B is inclined at an angle of \(60^\circ\) with the time axis. 2. **Identifying the Velocity**: - The velocity of a particle can be calculated from the slope of the displacement-time graph. - Mathematically, the velocity \(V\) is given by: \[ V = \frac{\Delta D}{\Delta t} \] - In the context of the graph, this is equivalent to the slope of the line, which can be expressed in terms of the tangent of the angle of inclination. 3. **Calculating Velocities**: - For particle A, the velocity \(V_A\) can be expressed as: \[ V_A = \tan(30^\circ) \] - For particle B, the velocity \(V_B\) can be expressed as: \[ V_B = \tan(60^\circ) \] 4. **Finding the Ratio of Velocities**: - We need to find the ratio of the velocities \(V_A : V_B\): \[ \frac{V_A}{V_B} = \frac{\tan(30^\circ)}{\tan(60^\circ)} \] 5. **Using Known Values of Tangents**: - We know that: \[ \tan(30^\circ) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \quad \text{and} \quad \tan(60^\circ) = \sqrt{3} \] - Substituting these values into the ratio: \[ \frac{V_A}{V_B} = \frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{1}{3} \] 6. **Final Ratio**: - Therefore, the ratio of the velocities \(V_A : V_B\) is: \[ V_A : V_B = 1 : 3 \] ### Summary: The ratio of the velocities of particles A and B is \(1 : 3\).
