  1. A \(\tan 25^{\circ}\) to \(\tan 40^{\circ}\)
  2. B \(\tan 25^{\circ}\) to \(\tan 50^{\circ}\)
  3. C \(\sin 25^{\circ}\) to \(\sin 50^{\circ}\)
  4. D \(\cos 25^{\circ}\) to \(\cos 50^{\circ}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\tan 25^{\circ}\) to \(\tan 50^{\circ}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Acceleration, \( a=\frac{d v}{d t} \)
\( \Rightarrow a= \) slope of velocity \( - \) time graph
Therefore, acceleration \( =\tan \theta \)
For body \( \mathrm{A}, a_{A}=\tan 25^{\circ} \)
For body \( \mathrm{B}, a_{B}=\tan 50^{\circ} \)
Therefore, ratio \( \frac{a_{A}}{a_{B}}=\frac{\tan 25^{\circ}}{\tan 50^{\circ}} \)
