Two particles $A$ and $B$ are moving in the $XY$-plane. Their positions vary with time $t$ according to the relations:
$x_A(t) = 3t, \quad x_B(t) = 6$
$y_A(t) = t, \quad y_B(t) = 2 + 3t^2$
What is the distance between the two particles at $t = 1$?

  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $\sqrt{12}$
