One end of a rod of length $L=1 \,m$ is fixed to a point on the circumference of a wheel of radius $R=1 / \sqrt{3} \,m$. The other end is sliding freely along a straight channel passing through the centre $O$ of the wheel as shown in the figure. The wheel is rotating with a constant angular velocity $\omega$ about $O$. The speed of the sliding end $P$,when $\theta=60^{\circ}$ is

  • A
    $\frac{2 \omega}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{\omega}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{2 \omega}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • D
    $\frac{\omega}{\sqrt{3}}$
