Guna has fixed a single door of 3 feet wide in his room whereas Nathan has fixed a double door, each 1 1/2 feet wide in his room. From the closed state, if each of the single and double doors can open up to 120°, whose door requires a minimum area? |
|
Answer» (a) Width of the door that Guna fixed = 3 feet. When the door is open the radius of the sector = 3 feet Angle covered = 120° ∴ Area required to open the door = 120°/360° × πr2 = 120°/360° × π × 3 × 3 = 37π feet2 (b) Width of the double doors that Nathan fixed = 112 feet. Angle described to open = 120° Area required to open = 2 × Area of the sector = 2 × 120°/360° × π × 3/2 × 3/2 feets2 = 3π/2 feet2 = 12 (3π) feet2 ∴ The double door requires the minimum area. |

Two gates are fitted at the entrance of a library. To open the gates easily, a wheel is fixed at 6 feet distance from the wall into which the gate is fixed. If one of the gates is opened to 90°, find the distance moved by the wheel (π = 3.14). |
|
Answer» Let A be the position of the wall AC be the gate in initial position and AB be position when it is moved 90°. Now the arc length BC gives the distance moved by the wheel. Length of the arc = θ°/360° × 2πr units = 90°/360° × 2 × 3.14 × 6 feets = 3.14 × 3 feets = 9.42 feets ∴ Distance moved by the wheel = 9.42 feets. |
