Two particles $A$ and $B$ are moving in the $XY$ plane. Particle $A$ moves along a line with equation $y = x$,while particle $B$ moves along the $X$-axis such that their $X$-coordinates are always equal. If particle $B$ moves with a uniform speed of $3 \ m/s$,what is the speed of particle $A$?

  • A
    $3 \ m/s$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{3} \ m/s$
  • C
    $3\sqrt{2} \ m/s$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{\sqrt{2}} \ m/s$

$A$ projectile is launched from the origin in the $xy$ plane ($x$ is the horizontal and $y$ is the vertically up direction) making an angle $\alpha$ from the $x$-axis. If its distance $r = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}$ from the origin is plotted against $x$,the resulting curves show different behaviors for launch angles $\alpha_1$ and $\alpha_2$ as shown in the figure. For $\alpha_1$,$r(x)$ keeps increasing with $x$,while for $\alpha_2$,$r(x)$ increases and reaches a maximum,then decreases and goes through a minimum before increasing again. The switch between these two cases takes place at a critical angle $\alpha_c$ (where $\alpha_1 < \alpha_c < \alpha_2$). The value of $\alpha_c$ is (where $v_0$ is the initial speed of the projectile and $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity).
