If both `Lim_(xrarrc^(-))f(x)` and `Lim_(xrarrc^(+))f(x)` exist finitely and are equal, then the function `f` is said to have removable discontinuity at `x=c`. If both the limits i.e. `Lim_(xrarrc^(-))f(x)` and `Lim_(xrarrc^(+))f(x)` exist finitely and are not equal, then the function `f` is said to have non-removable discontinuity at `x=c`.

If the circumference of a circle and the perimeter of a square are equal, then whose area is greater − that of circle or of square?

Answer»

Let the radius of the circle is r and side length of a square is a. 

∴ the circumference and the area of the circle are 2πr and πr2 respectively. 

And the perimeter and the area of the square are 4a and a2 respectively. 

Given that the circumference of the circle and the perimeter of the square are equal. 

∴ 2πr = 4a ⇒ = \(\frac{2a}π\).

Now, the ratio of the areas of the circle and area of the square is

\(\frac{π r^2}{a^2}\) = \(\frac{(\frac{2a}π)^2}{a^2}\) = \(\frac{\frac{4a^2π}{π^2}}{a^2}\) = \(\frac{4 a^2}{a^2π}\) = \(\frac{4}π\) > 1. (∵ π = 3.14 < 4. ∴ 4/π > 1)

Hence, \(\frac{Area\,of\,circle}{Area\,of\,square}\) > 1.

∴ Area of circle > Area of square.

Hence, area of circle is greater.

What is the relation between voltage and current in AC circuit containing only inductance? 

Answer»

Current (I) is lags behind the voltage by 90°.

I = V/XL amps. 

XL = 2πfL ohms. 

P = I * V * cosϕ watts. (Where cosϕ is 90 because current lags behind voltage by 90°. So cosϕ 90° = 0) 

∴ P = I * V * 0 = 0 watts. 

20.

What is inductance and inductive reactance? 

Answer»

Inductance;

A coil carrying alternating current produces an alternating flux, which causes to link with same coil and produces an emf in the coil, which opposes the applied emf. This property is known as inductance. The unit for measurement is henry.

Inductive reactance:

The opposition or the reactance offered by the property of inductance in the circuit is known as inductive reactance and denoted by the letter XL. The unit for measurement is ohm.  

21.

What is the relation between voltage and current in AC circuit containing only capacitance?

Answer»

Current (I) is leading the voltage by 90°. 

I = V/XC amps. 

XC = 1/2πfC ohms.

P = I * V * cosϕ watts. (Where cosϕ is 90 because current is leading the voltage by 90°. So cosϕ 90° = 0) 

∴ P = I * V * 0 = 0 watts. 

22.

What is the relation between voltage and current in AC circuit containing only resistance? 

Answer»

Current (I) is in-phase with the voltage.

I = V/R amps. 

P = I * V * cosϕ or I2 R watts. (Where cosϕ is zero because the voltage and current are in-phase. So cosϕ 0° (zero) = 1)

A tank can be filled by tap A in 5 hours and tap B in 4 hours. Tap C can empty the filled tank in 8 hours. When the tank is empty, all three taps are opened simultaneously, how long will it take to fill the tank completely?1. \(\frac{10}{3}\) hours2. \(\frac{40}{13}\) hours3. 8 hours4. \(\frac{10}{7}\) hours

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : \(\frac{40}{13}\) hours

Given:

A tank can be filled by tap A in 5 hours, by B in 4 hours, C can empty it in 8 hours

Calculation:

Efficiency of A = 1/5, of B = 1/4, C =  -1/8

Time Taken by A, B, C ∝ 1/Efficiency  = (1/5 + 1/4 – 1/8) = (8 + 10 – 5)/40 = 13/40

∴ Time Taken by A, B, C = 40/13 hours

In how many ways can a group of 5 men and 2 women be made out of a total of 7 men and 3 women?1. 452. 633. 904. 126

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 63

Formula used:

If we have a group of 'n' objects out of which we make a selection taking 'r' object at a time, then the number of such selections is given by the combination formula

nCr = n!/(r!(n – r!))

Calculation:

Number of groups can be formed by 5 men and 2 women out of 7 men and 3 women

7C5 × 3C2

⇒ 7!/(5! × (7 – 5)!) × 3!/(2! × (3 – 2)!)

⇒ 7!/(5! × 2!) × 3!/(2! × 1!)

⇒ (7 × 6 × 5!)/(5! × 2) × (3 × 2!)/(2!)

⇒ (7 × 3) × (3)

⇒ 63

∴ The number of ways to arrange men and women is 63

12 In a plane electromagnetic wave, the directions of electric field and magnetic field are represented by \( \hat{ k } \) and \( 2 \hat{ i }-2 \hat{ j } \), respectively. What is the unit vector along direction of propagation of the wave?(a) \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(\hat{ i }+\hat{ j }) \)(b) \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(\hat{ j }+\hat{ k }) \)(c) \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}(\hat{ i }+2 \hat{ j }) \)(d) \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}(2 \hat{ i }+\hat{ j }) \)

Answer»

Correct answer is (a)

We know that propagation wave vector

∵ \(\vec{E} = \hat{k}\)

\(\vec{B} = 2\hat{i} - 2\hat{j}\)

\(\vec{C} = \vec{E} \times \vec{B}\)

\(\vec{C} = \begin{vmatrix}\hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k} \\0 & 0 & 1 \\2 & -2 & 0\end{vmatrix}\)

\(\vec{C} = \hat{i}(0 + 2) - \hat{j}(0 - 2) + 0\,\hat{k}\)

\(\vec{C} = 2\hat{i} + 2\hat{j}\)

unit vector of propagation wave\(\frac{\vec{C}}{|\vec{C}|}\)

\(=\frac{2\hat{i} + 2\hat{j}}{\sqrt{4 + 4}}\)

\(=\frac{2\hat{i} + 2\hat{j}}{\sqrt{8}}\)

\(\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(\hat{i} + \hat{j})\)

\(E=\frac{V}{L}=\frac{IR}{L}\) (V=IR, ohm's Law)

and,

\(H=\frac{I}{2\pi a}\) (current distributed along surface of wire)

\(S=EH=\frac{I^2R}{2\pi aL}\)

What is formula for magnetic flux

Answer»

The magnetic flux formula is given by,

\(\phi_B=B.A\)

\(\phi_B=BACos\theta\)

Where,

B = Magnetic field,

A =  Surface area and

\(\theta\) =  Angle between the magnetic field and normal to the surface.
