A particle is moving with speed $v = b \sqrt { x }$ along positive $x$ - axis. Calculate the speed of the particle at time $t = \tau$ (assume that the particle is at origin at $t = 0$ )
(1) $b ^ { 2 } \tau$
(2) $\frac { b ^ { 2 } \tau } { \sqrt { 2 } }$
(3) $\frac { b ^ { 2 } \tau } { 2 }$
(4) $\frac { b ^ { 2 } \tau } { 4 }$
