An object is moving in the clockwise direction around the unit circle $x^2+y^2=1$. As it passes through the point $\left(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)$,its $y$-coordinate is decreasing at the rate of $3 \text{ units/sec}$. The rate at which the $x$-coordinate changes at this point is

  • A
    $2 \text{ units/sec}$
  • B
    $3\sqrt{3} \text{ units/sec}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{3} \text{ units/sec}$
  • D
    $2\sqrt{3} \text{ units/sec}$
