A spherical balloon is filled with 4500π cubic meters of helium gas. If a leak in the balloon causes the gas to escape at the rate of 72π cubic meters per minute, then the rate (in meters per minute) at which the radius of the balloon decreases 49 minutes after the leakage began is

  • 9/7

  • 7/9

  • 2/9

  • 9/2

Solution

C.

2/9

Volume of balloon is,space straight V space equals space 4 over 3 πr cubed
After 49 minutes volume = 4500π – 49 (72π) = 972π
4 over 3 space πr cubed space equals space 972 space straight pi
rightwards double arrow space straight r cubed space space equals space 729
rightwards double arrow space straight r space equals space 9
Now comma
straight v equals 4 over 3 πr cubed
differentiating space both space the space sides
dv over dt space equals space 4 over 3 space straight pi 3 straight r squared dr over dt
72 space straight pi space equals space 4 πr squared space dr over dt
dr over dt space equals space fraction numerator 72 over denominator 4.9.9 end fraction space equals space 2 over 9

A wire of length 2 units is cut into two parts which are bent respectively to form a square of side=x units and a circle of radius=r units. If the sum of the areas of the square and the circle so formed is minimum, then:

  • 2x=(π+4)r

  • (4−π)x=πr

  • x=2r

  • 2x=r

Solution

C.

x=2r

According to give information, we have
Perimeter of a square + perimeter of a circle
= 2 units
⇒ 4 x + 2πr = 2
 Now, let A be the sum of the areas of the square and the circle.
Then, A = x22r

  • 3x2 + 5y2 -32 = 0

  • 5x2 + 3y2 - 48 = 0

  • 3x2 + 5y2 - 15 = 0 

  • 5x2 + 3y2 - 32 = 0

Solution

A.

3x2 + 5y2 -32 = 0

B.

5x2 + 3y2 - 48 = 0

straight x squared over straight a squared space plus straight y squared over straight b squared space equals space 1

9 over straight a squared space plus 1 over straight b squared space equals 1...... space left parenthesis 1 right parenthesis

case - 1 when a > b

Given P(x) = x4+ ax3 + cx + d such that x = 0 is the only real root of P′ (x) = 0. If P(–1) < P(1),then in the interval [–1, 1].

  • P(–1) is the minimum and P(1) is the maximum of P

  • P(–1) is not minimum but P(1) is the maximum of P

  • P(–1) is the minimum but P(1) is not the maximum of P

  • neither P(–1) is the minimum nor P(1) is the maximum of P

Solution

B.

P(–1) is not minimum but P(1) is the maximum of P

P(x) = x4+ ax3+ bx2+ cx + d
P′(x) = 4x3+ 3ax2+ 2bx + c
As P′(x) = 0 has only root x = 0
⇒ c = 0
P′(x) = x(4x2+ 3ax + 2b)
⇒ 4x3+ 3ax + 2b = 0 has non real root.
and 4x2+ 3ax + 2b > 0 ∀ x ∈ [−1, 1].

As P(−1) < P(1) ⇒ P(1) is the max. of P(x) in [−1, 1]
