The distance time graph of a particle at time makes angles $45^{\circ}$ with the time axis. After one second, it makes angle $60^{\circ}$ with the time axis. What is the acceleration of the particle?
  1. $\sqrt{3}-1$
  2. $\sqrt{3}+1$
  3. $\sqrt{3}$
  4. 1

Solution

Velocity at time t is $\tan 45^{\circ}=1$. Velocity at time $(t=1)$ is $\tan 60^{\circ}=\sqrt{3}$. Acceleration is
change in velocity in one second $=\sqrt{3}-1$. .
