Answer:

The ratio is 1 : 3.

Explanation:

Now, the slope of position-time graph gives the velocity of the object ( derivative of position with respect to time ). So the straight lines have inclinations of 30° and 60° with the axis of time ( X-axis ).

So, the slopes will be,

 \tan(30)  =  \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} }

 \tan(60)  =  \sqrt{3}

The ratio will be,

 \frac{ \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } }{ \sqrt{3} }  =  \frac{1}{3}

Which indeed is 1:3 .
