Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 59319

Concept used:-

Trick for writing cube of a number.

Method & Calculation:-

  • Write the cube of 3 & 9 in three digit form i.e. (027729)
  • Now multiply all the digits within themselves i.e. (3 x 9) = 27
  • Now multiply the result obtained from step (2) by 3. i.e. 27 x 3 = 81
  • Now multiply 81 and 39 i.e. 81 x 39 = 3159

Find the cube root of 238328?1. 522. 423. 624. 725. 22

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 62

Given:

The given number = 238328

Concept:

Calculation skills trick

Calculation:

Step(1):

First, we will take the digit at the unit’s place.

At the unit place, we have 8.

Step(2):

Now consider the cube table, the cube of which number has 8 at the unit digit place.

We see, 2 x 2 x 2 = 8.

Step(3):

That means the cube root of 238328 will have 2 at the unit place.

Step(4):

Now ignore the last 3 digits of 238328, i.e. 328

Step(5):

Taking 238 as a reference number, we can see from the cubes table 238 lies between cubes of 6 and 7.

Step(6): Here, we choose the lower number i.e. 6

∴ We get the two digit of the answer

∴ Cube root of 238328 = 62 

7.

Find the fourth proportional to 11, 121, 33.1. 2632. 3633. 4634. 111

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 363

Calculation:

Let x be the fourth proportional

11 ∶ 121 = 33 ∶ x

⇒ 11 × x = 33 × 121

⇒ x = (33 × 121)/11

⇒ x = 363

∴ The fourth proportional is 363.

Define electric dipole give the expression for the magnitude of its electric dipole moment and the direction

Answer»

The electric dipole is a pair of two equal and opposite charges, +q and −q are separated by a very small distance. The algebraic sum of the charge on the dipole is zero and the electric field of the dipole is not zero, thus the electric field of dipole is added.

The electric dipole moment for a pair of opposite charges of magnitude q is defined as the magnitude of the charge times the distance between them and the defined direction is toward the positive charge.

A water molecule has an electric dipole moment of 6.3 x 10 Cm. A sample contains 10 water molecules, with all the dipole moments aligned parallel to the external electric field of magnitude 3 x 105 NC-1 . How much work is required to rotate all the water molecules from θ = 0° to 90°?

Answer»

When the water molecules are aligned in the direction of the electric field, it has minimum potential energy. The work done to rotate the dipole from θ = 0° to 90° is equal to the potential energy difference between these two configurations.

W = ΔU = U(90°) – U(0°)

As we know, U = -pE cos θ, Next we calculate the work done to rotate one water molecule from θ = 0° to 90°,

For one water molecule, W = – pE cos 90° + pE cos 0° = pE

W = 6.3 x10-30 x 3 x 105 = 18.9 x 10-25

For 1022 water molecules, the total work done is 

Wtot = 18.9x 1025 x 1022 = 18.9 x 103 J

If \( n(A)=300, n(A \cup B)=500, n(A \cap B)=50 \) and \( n\left(B^{\prime}\right)=350 \), find \( n(B) \) and \( n( U ) \)

Answer»

\(n (A \cup B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A \cap B) \)

⇒ \(500 = 300 + n(B) - 50\)

⇒ \(n(B) = 500 - 250 = 250\)

Also,

\(n(B') = 350\)    (given)

⇒ \(n(U) - n(B) = 350\)

⇒ \(n(U) = 350 + n(B) = 350 + 250 = 600\)

The sum of two numbers is 119 and their HCF is 17 and LCM is 170, so the inverse sum of the numbers is ______.A. 119/501B. 501/119C. 7/170D. 170/71. A2. C3. B4. D

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : C

Given:

HCF = 17

LCM = 170

Sum of two numbers = 119

Concept used:

Product of two numbers = LCM × HCF

Calculation:

Let the two numbers be 'a' and 'b'.

⇒ a + b = 119

⇒ a = 119 - b

Product of two numbers = LCM × HCF

⇒ a × b = LCM × HCF

⇒ a × (119 - b) = 17 × 170

⇒ 119a - a2 = 2890

⇒ a2 - 119a + 2890 = 0

⇒ a = 34, 85

When a = 34, then b = 85

When a = 85, then b = 34

The possible value of a and b is 84 and 34.

Sum of inverse of a and b

⇒ (1/84) + (1/34)

⇒ 7/170

∴ The sum of inverse is 7/170. 

43.

The product of hcf and lcm of 2 numbers is 119 Find the 2 numbers if none of them is one

Answer»

The product of HCF and LCM of two number is 119.

The two number if one of the number is not 1?

The product of HCF and LCM of two number is 119.

First we factor 119,

7  | 119

17 | 17

1    | 1

So, 119 is the product of three numbers 

We have given one number is not 1.

Which means the required numbers are 7 and 17.

Therefore, The two numbers are 7 and 17.

44.

If y =e3x +x2 , then prove that d2 y÷ dx2 -2 =9(y-x2)

Answer»

y = e3x + x2

⇒ \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) = 3e3x + 2x

⇒ \(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) = 9e3x + 2

⇒ \(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) - 2 = 9e3x

⇒ \(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\) - 2 = 9(y - x2) (∵ y = e3x + x2 ⇒ e3x = y - x2)

Hence, proved.

how to solve this using the factorization method 2x2-3x-3=0

Answer» 2x2−3x−3=0

All equations of the form ax2+bx+c=0 can be solved using the quadratic formula: 2a−b±b2−4ac​​. The quadratic formula gives two solutions, one when ± is addition and one when it is subtraction.

2x2−3x−3=0

This equation is in standard form: ax2+bx+c=0. Substitute 2 for a, −3 for b, and −3 for c in the quadratic formula, 2a−b±b2−4ac​​.

x=2×2−(−3)±(−3)2−4×2(−3)​​

Square −3.

x=2×2−(−3)±9−4×2(−3)​​

Multiply −4 times 2.

x=2×2−(−3)±9−8(−3)​​

Multiply −8 times −3.

x=2×2−(−3)±9+24​​

Add 9 to 24.

x=2×2−(−3)±33​​

The opposite of −3 is 3.

x=2×23±33​​

Multiply 2 times 2.

x=43±33​​

Now solve the equation x=43±33​​ when ± is plus. Add 3 to 33​.

x=433​+3​

Now solve the equation x=43±33​​ when ± is minus. Subtract 33​ from 3.

x=43−33​​

The equation is now solved.

x=433​+3​x=43−33​​

Hope this will help you out :D
