The velocity-time graph of the objects A and B makesangles 300 and 600 with the time axis. Find the ratio of their acceleration.

Answer»

Answer:

Given:

Velocity time graph has slopes of 30° and 60° with time axis.

To FIND:

RATIO of acceleration

Concept:

Slope in velocity time graph actually represents the acceleration because the slope denotes the change of velocity with RESPECT to time.

Regarding Acceleration, it's a vector quantity having both directions and magnitude. SINCE slope is being considered , we are taking average velocity into consideration.

Calculation:

For particle A :

acc =  \tan(30 \degree)  =  \dfrac{1}{ \sqrt{3} }  \: units

For particle B:

acc =  \tan(60 \degree)  =   \sqrt{3} \: units

REQUIRED ratio:

\boxed{ \red{ \large{A:B = 1 :  (\sqrt{3}  \times  \sqrt{3} ) = 1 : 3}}}
