    From the following displacement-time graph find out the velocity of a moving body

    A)                         \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\] m/s            

    B)                                  3 m/s            

    C)                         \[\sqrt{3}\] m/s                       

    D)                         \[\frac{1}{3}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                              In first instant you will apply \[\upsilon =\tan \theta \] and say, \[\upsilon =\tan {{30}^{o}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\] m/s.             But it is wrong because formula \[\upsilon =\tan \theta \] is valid when angle is measured with time axis.             Here angle is taken from displacement axis. So angle from time axis \[={{90}^{o}}-{{30}^{o}}={{60}^{o}}\]             Now \[\upsilon =\tan \,{{60}^{o}}=\sqrt{3}\]
