Solution

Number of Roots

Given:

\( e^x \sin x = 1 \) has two real roots → say \( x_1 \) and \( x_2 \)

Apply Rolle’s Theorem:

Since \( f(x) = e^x \sin x \) is continuous and differentiable, and \( f(x_1) = f(x_2) \), ⇒ There exists \( c \in (x_1, x_2) \) such that \( f'(c) = 0 \)

Compute:

\[ f'(x) = e^x(\sin x + \cos x) = 0 \Rightarrow \tan x = -1 \] At this point, \[ e^x \cos x = -1 \]

\[ \boxed{\text{At least one root}} \]


MCA NIMCET PYQ
Water runs into a conical tank of radius $5$ ft and height $10$ ft at a constant rate of $2\text{ ft}^3/\text{min}$. How fast is the water level rising when the water is $6$ ft deep?

MCA NIMCET Previous Year PYQ MCA NIMCET NIMCET 2009 PYQ

Solution

Cone volume: $V = \dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$ 
 Similarity: $r = \dfrac{h}{2}$ 
 So, $V = \dfrac{\pi}{12}h^3$ 
 Differentiate: $\dfrac{dV}{dt} = \dfrac{\pi}{4}h^2 \dfrac{dh}{dt}$ 
 Put values: $2 = \dfrac{\pi}{4}(36)\dfrac{dh}{dt}$ $2 = 9\pi\dfrac{dh}{dt}$ $\displaystyle \dfrac{dh}{dt} = \dfrac{2}{9\pi}$

MCA NIMCET PYQ
A box open at the top is made by cutting squares from the four corners of a $6 \times 6$ m sheet. The height of the box for maximum volume is:





Go to Discussion

MCA NIMCET Previous Year PYQ MCA NIMCET NIMCET 2009 PYQ

Solution

Volume: $V = x(6-2x)^2$ 
Differentiate: $\dfrac{dV}{dx} = 0$ gives $x = 1$ 
So height = $1$ m → not in options. 
Closest correct is None of these.

MCA NIMCET PYQ
The rate of increase of length of the shadow of a man $2$ meters high, due to a lamp at $10$ meters height, when he is moving away from it at $2 \text{ m/sec}$ is





Go to Discussion

MCA NIMCET Previous Year PYQ MCA NIMCET NIMCET 2010 PYQ

Solution

Let $x =$ distance of man from lamp 
Let $y =$ length of shadow 
 By similar triangles: $\dfrac{10}{x+y} = \dfrac{2}{y}$  Cross-multiply: 
$10y = 2(x+y)$ 
$10y = 2x + 2y$ 
$8y = 2x$ 
$y = \dfrac{x}{4}$ 
 Differentiate w.r.t time $t$: 
 $\dfrac{dy}{dt} = \dfrac{1}{4}\dfrac{dx}{dt}$ 
 Given $\dfrac{dx}{dt} = 2$ m/sec
: $\dfrac{dy}{dt} = \dfrac{1}{4} \times 2 = \dfrac{1}{2}$
