  • Question 1
    4 / -1

    A factory owner purchases two types of machines, A and B for his factory. The requirements and the limitations for the machines are as follows:

    Machine Area occupied Labour force Daily output (in units)
    A 1000 m\(^2\) 12 men 60
    B 1200 m\(^2\) 8 men 40

    He has maximum area of \(9000 \mathrm{~m}^{2}\) available, and 72 skilled labourers who can operate both the machines. How many machines of each type should he buy to maximise the daily output?
    Solution

    Let \(x\) and \(y\) respectively be the number of machines \(A\) and \(B\) which the factory owner should buy.

    Now, according to the given information, the linear programming problem is:

    Maximise \(Z=60 x+40 y\)

    Subject to the constraints:

    \(1000 x+1200 y \leq 9000\)

    \(\Rightarrow 5 x+6 y \leq 45 \ldots(1)\)

    \(12 x+8 y \leq 72 \)

    \(\Rightarrow 3 x+2 y \leq 18 \ldots(2) \)

    \(x\geq 0, y \geq 0 \ldots \text { (3) }\)

    The inequalities (1), (2), (3) can be graphed as:

    The shaded portion OABC is the feasible region.

    The value of Z at the corner points are given in the following table.

    Corner point \(Z = 60 x + 40 y\)  
    O(0,0) 0  
    A( 0 , \(\frac{15} 2\) ) 300  
    B( \(\frac{9}{4}, \frac{45}{8}\) ) 360 ⟶ Maximum
    C ( 6, 0) 360 ⟶  

    The maximum value of \(Z\) is 360 units, which is attained at \(B\left(\frac{9}{4}, \frac{45}{8}\right)\) and \(C(6,0)\).
    Now, the number of machines cannot be in fraction.
    Thus, to maximise the daily output, 6 machines of type A and no machine of type B need to be bought.
  • Question 2
    4 / -1

    If \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}\) and \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}\) are two vectors such that \(|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}|=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}},|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}|=2\) and \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}\) is a unit vector, then find the angle between \(\vec{a}\) and \(\vec{b}\)

    Solution

    Given: \(|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}|=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}},|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}|=2\) and \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}\) is a unit vector

    Let the angle between the vectors \(\vec{a}\) and \(\vec{b}\) is \(\theta\)

    We know that, \(|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}|=|\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}||\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}| \sin \theta\)

    \(\Rightarrow 1=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \times 2 \times \sin \theta\)

    \(\Rightarrow \sqrt{3}=2 \times \sin \theta\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\sin \theta\)

    ⇒ θ​ = 60°

  • Question 3
    4 / -1

    If point \(A\) is in equilibrium under the action of the applied forces, the values of tension. \(\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{AC}}=\) ?

    Solution

    Lami's theorem:

    It states that if three forces acting at a point are in equilibrium, each force is proportional to the sine of the angle between the other two forces. Consider three forces \(F_{A}, F_{B}, F_{C}\) acting on a particle or rigid body making angles \(\alpha, \beta\) and \(\gamma\) with each other.

    Therefore,

    \(\frac{F_{A}}{\sin \alpha}=\frac{F_{B}}{\sin \beta}=\frac{F_{C}}{\sin \gamma}\)

    Given,

    \(\angle B A C=180^{\circ}-\left(30^{\circ}+60^{\circ}\right)\)

    \(\angle B A C=90^{\circ}\)

    By Lami’s Theorem,

    \(\frac{800}{\sin 90^{\circ}}=\frac{T_{A C}}{\sin 150^{\circ}}\)

    \(\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{AC}}=400 \mathrm{~N}\)

  • Question 4
    4 / -1

    A bullet fired at an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with the horizontal hits the ground \(3.0 \mathrm{~km}\) away. By adjusting its angle of projection, find maximum range \(\left(\mathrm{R}_{\max }\right)\) is achieved by the bullet? Assume the muzzle speed to be fixed, and neglect air resistance.

    Solution

    Horizontal Range \((\mathrm{R})=3 \mathrm{~km}\)

    Angle of projection \((\theta)=30^{\circ}\)

    Acceleration due to gravity \((\mathrm{g)=9.8 \mathrm{~m/s}^2}\)

    Horizontal range for the projection velocity \(\mathrm{u}_{0}\), is given by the relation:

    \(\mathrm{R=\frac{u_{0}^{2} \sin 2 \theta}{g}} \)

    \(3=\frac{\mathrm u_{0}^{2} \sin 60^{\circ}}{\mathrm g} \)

    \(\frac{\mathrm u_{0}^{2}}{\mathrm g}=2 \sqrt{3} \quad \ldots \ldots .(\mathrm{i})\)

    The maximum range \(\mathrm{R}_{\max }\) is achieved by the bullet when it is fired at an angle of \(45^{\circ}\) with the horizontal, that is

    \(\mathrm{R}_{\max }=\frac{\mathrm u_{0}^{2}}{\mathrm g} \quad \ldots \ldots . (\mathrm{ii})\)

    On comparing equations (i) and (ii), we get:

    \(\mathrm{R}_{\max }=2 \times 1.732 \)

    \(\mathrm{R}_{\max }=3.464 \mathrm{~km}\)

  • Question 5
    4 / -1
    The number of real solutions of the equation \(1+\sin x . \sin ^{2} \frac{x}{2}=0\) in \([-\pi, \pi]\) is:
    Solution

    Given, \(1+\sin x \cdot \sin ^{2} \frac{x}{2}=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow 2+2 \sin x \cdot \sin ^{2} \frac{x}{2}=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow 2+\sin x(1-\cos x)=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow 4+2 \sin x(1-\cos x)=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow 4+2 \sin x-\sin 2 x=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow \sin 2 x=2 \sin x+4\)

    Above is not possible for any value of \(x\) as \(L H S\) has maximum value 1 and \(RHS\) has minimum value 2 .

  • Question 6
    4 / -1

    A medicine is known to be 50% effective to cure a patient. If the medicine is given to 4 patients, what is the probability that at least one patient is cured by this medicine?

    Solution

    Here, probability of medicine to cure patient \(=\frac{1}{2}\)

    And, probability of none cured \(=1-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\)

    The probability that at least one patient is cured by this medicine = 1 - none patient cured by this medicine

    \(=1-(\frac{1}{2}) \times(\frac{1}{2}) \times(\frac{1}{2}) \times(\frac{1}{2})\)

    \(=1-(\frac{1}{2})^{4}\)

    \(=\frac{15}{16}\)

  • Question 7
    4 / -1

    The equation \(x^{2}+y^{2}+2 g x+2 f y+c=0\) always represents a circle whose centre is \((-g,-f)\) and radius is \(\sqrt{g^{2}+f^{2}-c}\). If \(g^{2}+f^{2}=c\), then in this case, the circle is called as:

    Solution

    Equation of circle having centre \(({h}, {k})\) and radius \({r}\) is \(({x}-{h})^{2}+({y}-{k})^{2}=0\)

    \(x^{2}+y^{2}-2 h x-2 h y+h^{2}+k^{2}=r^{2}\)

    \(x^{2}+y^{2}-2 h x-2 h y+h^{2}+k^{2}-r^{2}=0\)

    Comparing the above equation with \(x^{2}+y^{2}+2 g x+2 f y+c=0\), we get,

    \(h=-g, k=-f\) and \(h 2+k 2-r 2=c\)

    Now, \(\left(x^{2}+2 g x+g^{2}\right)+\left(y^{2}+2 f y+f^{2}\right)=g^{2}+f^{2}-c\)

    \((x+g)^{2}+(y+f)^{2}=\sqrt{g^{2}+f^{2}-c}\)

    \(\{x-(-g)\}^{2}+\{y-(-f)\}^{2}=\sqrt{g^{2}+f^{2}-c}\)

    The equation \(x^{2}+y^{2}+2 g x+2 f y+c=0\) always represents a circle whose centre is \((-g,-f)\), that is \(\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right.\) coefficient of \(x,-\frac{1}{2}\) coefficient of \(\left.y\right)\) and radius is \(\sqrt{g^{2}+f^{2}-c}\).

    If \(g^{2}+f^{2}-c=0\) then the radius of the circle becomes zero (degenerate circle). In this case, the circle reduces to the point \((-g,-f) .\) Such a circle is known as a point circle. In other words, the equation \(x^{2}+\) \(y^{2}+2 g x+2 f y+c=0\) represents a point circle.

  • Question 8
    4 / -1

    Find the equation of the plane passing through the points A (1, 0, 2), B (2, 1, 1) and C (-1, 2, 1)?

    Solution

    Here, we have to find the equation of the plane passing through the points A (1, 0, 2), B (2, 1, 1) and C (-1, 2, 1)

    Here, x1 = 1, y1 = 0, z1 = 2, x2 = 2, y2 = 1, z2 = 1, x3 = - 1, y3 = 2 and z3 = 1.

    As we know, equation of the plane in Cartesian form passing through three non-collinear points (x1, y1, z1), (x2, y2, z2) and (x3, y3, z3) is given by:

    \(\left|\begin{array}{ccc}x-x_{1} & y-y_{1} & z-z_{1} \\ x_{2}-x_{1} & y_{2}-y_{1} & z_{2}-z_{1} \\ x_{3}-x_{1} & y_{3}-y_{1} & z_{3}-z_{1}\end{array}\right|=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow\left|\begin{array}{ccc}x-1 & y-0 & z-2 \\ 1 & 1 & -1 \\ -2 & 2 & -1\end{array}\right|=0\)

    ⇒ (x - 1) × (-1 + 2) - (y - 0) × (-1 - 2) + (z - 2) × (2 + 2) = 0

    ⇒ x - 1 - 3y + 4z - 8 = 0

    ⇒ x - 3y + 4z - 9 = 0

    So, the equation of the required plane is x - 3y + 4z - 9 = 0

  • Question 9
    4 / -1

    Consider a truss \(PQR\) loaded at \(P\) with a force \(F\) as shown in the figure. The tension in the member \(QR\) is:

    Solution

    \(\tan 30^\circ=\frac{x}{b}\)

    \(b=\frac{x}{\tan 30^\circ}\)

    Taking moment about \(Q\)

    \(\Rightarrow F \times X=V_{R} \times 2.732 x\)

    \(\therefore V_{R}=0.366 \mathrm{~F}\)

    \(\Rightarrow V_{Q}=F-0.366 \mathrm{~F}\)

    \(=0.634 \mathrm{~F}\)

    Let force in the member \(\mathrm{PQ}\) is \(\mathrm{F}_{1}\)

    \(\therefore F_{1} \sin 45^\circ=V_{Q}\)

    \(\Rightarrow F_{1} \sin 45^\circ=0.634 \mathrm{~F}\)

    Force in member \(QR\)

    \(=\mathrm{F}_{1} \cos 45^\circ\)

    \(=0.634 {F}\)

  • Question 10
    4 / -1

    Find the value of \({ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}}+2 \times\left({ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}-1}\right)+{ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}-2}\)?

    Solution

    Given:

    \({ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}}+2 \times\left({ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}-1}\right)+{ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}-2}\)

    \(={ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}}+\left({ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}-1}\right)+\left({ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}-1}\right)+{ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}-2}\)

    \(={ }^{(\mathrm{n}+1)} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}}+{ }^{(\mathrm{n}+1)} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}-1} \quad\left(\because{ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}}+{ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}-1}={ }^{(\mathrm{n}+1)} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}}\right)\)

    \(={ }^{(n+2)} C_{\mathrm{r}}\)
