$A$ straight highway leads to the foot of a tower. $A$ man standing at the top of the tower observes a car at an angle of depression of $30^{\circ}$,which is approaching the foot of the tower with a uniform speed. Six seconds later,the angle of depression of the car is found to be $60^{\circ}$. Find the time taken by the car to reach the foot of the tower from this point (in $seconds$).

    $6$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $2$
