Question 1-: Evaluate

Solution:

Let

By L – Hospital rule,

Question-2: Evaluate

Solution:

Let

By L – Hospital rule

 

Question-3: Find the value of a, b if

Solution:

Let

By L – Hospital rule

… (1)

But

From equation (1)

 

Question-4: Evaluate

Solution:

Let

Taking log on both sides,

By L – Hospital rule,

i.e.

 

Question-5: find out the integral is convergent or divergent. Find the value in case of convergent.

Sol.  Here we will convert the integral into limit ,

                                              =

                                                               =

                                                               =

                                                              =

As we can see , here limit does not exist. i.e. that is infinity.

So we can say that the given integral is divergent.

 

Question-6: find out the integral is convergent or divergent. Find the value in case of convergent.

Sol. Covert to the limit ,

                                          =

                                                              =

                                                              =

Again the limit does not exist that means the integral is divergent

 

Question-7: find out the integral is convergent or divergent. Find the value in case of convergent.

Sol.  As we see, the given is integrand is not continuous at x = 0 , we will split the integral,

                              =   +      

We will check one by one whether the integrals are convergent or divergent,

                                               

As we found that, integral is divergent

We don’t need to check for the second one.

 

Question-8: Find  γ(-½) 

 

Solution:       (-½) + 1  =  ½
γ(-1/2)  =   γ(-½ + 1)  / (-½)   

=   - 2   γ(1/2 )  

=  - 2 π

Question- 12: find the area under the curves where y =  x and y =  x + 1,         x = 2 and y-axis.

Sol. When we draw the graph, curve does not meet, but depend on two vertical lines,

Here boundary is [0 , 2]

Area under the curve,

                                              A =

                                                 

 

So that the area under the curve is 3.2092 unit square.

 

Question-13: find the average value of the function f(x) = x³ over the interval[0,1].

Sol.  We know that

                                 f( avg.) =      

 

                                              =      =       = 1 / 4

 

Question-14: A force of 1200 N compresses a spring from its natural length of 18 cm to a length of 16 cm. How much work is done in compressing it from 16 cm to 14 cm?

Sol.  Here,

                          F = kx

So that,

                         1200 = 2k

                             K = 600 N/cm

In that case,

                                 F = 600x

We know that,

                               W =      

                               W =       , which gives

                    W  = 3600 N.cm

 

Question-15: Find the volume of the solid of revolution generated by rotating the region between the graph of f(x) = x over the interval [1,4] around x-axis.

Sol. The graph of the function will look like as follow,

                                                    

 

On rotation it will make circle ( cross-section)

We know that,

                             V =       

                                =     =    , which gives

                               = 

The volume is

 

Question-16: suppose a wire hanging on two poles follows the curve,

                                      f(x) = a cosh(x/a)

Find the length of the wire.

 

Sol. We will find the first derivative of f(x),

                                          f’(x) =  sinh(x/a)

The curve of f(x) will look like,

                                         

Hence the curve os symmetric, we will measure the length of one side first,

The limits on one side will be, 0 to b

We know that

                              Length of Arc  = 

Put  f’(x) =  sinh(x/a), we get

                            Length of Arc  = 

Use the identity,

                              

                                                       =

                                                       =

We get on solving,

                                              a sinh(b/a)

On both sides, the length of the curve will be,

                                              2 a sinh(b/a)
