JEE Advance - Mathematics (2002)
- 2Let $$\overrightarrow V = 2\overrightarrow i + \overrightarrow j - \overrightarrow k $$ and $$\overrightarrow W = \overrightarrow i + 3\overrightarrow k .$$ If $$\overrightarrow U $$ is a unit vector, then the maximum value of the scalar triple product $$\left| {\overrightarrow U \overrightarrow V \overrightarrow W } \right|$$ isОтвечать(C)$$\sqrt {59} $$
- 2Let a complex number $$\alpha ,\,\alpha \ne 1$$, be a root of the equation $${z^{p + q}} - {z^p} - {z^q} + 1 = 0$$, where p, q are distinct primes. Show that either $$1 + \alpha + {\alpha ^2} + .... + {\alpha ^{p - 1}} = 0\,or\,1 + \alpha + {\alpha ^2} + .... + {\alpha ^{q - 1}} = 0$$, but not both together.Отвечать(A)The given equation can be factored, and the roots must satisfy either the p-th or q-th cyclotomic polynomial.
- 3If $${\overrightarrow a }$$ and $${\overrightarrow b }$$ are two unit vectors such that $${\overrightarrow a + 2\overrightarrow b }$$ and $${5\overrightarrow a - 4\overrightarrow b }$$ are perpendicular to each other then the angle between $$\overrightarrow a $$ and $$\overrightarrow b $$ isОтвечать(B)$${60^ \circ }$$
- 4Let a, b be positive real numbers. If a, $${{A_1},{A_2}}$$, b are in arithmetic progression, a, $${{G_1},{G_2}}$$, b are in geometric progression and a, $${{H_1},{H_2}}$$, b are in harmonic progression, show that $$\,{{{G_1},{G_2}} \over {{H_1},{H_2}}} = {{{A_1} + {A_2}} \over {{H_1} + {H_2}}} = {{(2a + b)\,(a + 2b)} \over {9ab}}$$.Отвечать(A)The question asks to prove an equality related to arithmetic, geometric, and harmonic progressions.
- 5A straight line $$L$$ through the origin meets the lines $$x + y = 1$$ and $$x + y = 3$$ at $$P $$ and $$Q$$ respectively. Through $$P$$ and $$Q$$ two straight lines $${L_1}$$ and $${L_2}$$ are drawn, parallel to $$2x - y = 5$$ and $$3x + y = 5$$ respectively. Lines $${L_1}$$ and $${L_2}$$ intersect at $$R$$. Show that the locus of $$R$$, as $$L$$ varies is a straight line.Отвечать(A)The locus of R is a straight line.
- 15A box contains $$N$$ coins, $$m$$ of which are fair and the rest are biased. The probability of getting a head when a fair coin is tossed is $$1/2$$, while it is $$2/3$$ when a biased coin is tossed. A coin is drawn from the box at random and is tossed twice. The first time it shows head and the second time it shows tail. what is the probability that the coin drawn is fair?Отвечать(A)$$rac{9m}{m + 8N}$$
- 16Let $$V$$ be the volume of the parallelopiped formed by the vectors $$\overrightarrow a = {a_1}\widehat i + {a_2}\widehat j + {a_3}\widehat k,$$ $$\,\,\,\,\overrightarrow b = {b_1}\widehat i + {b_2}\widehat j + {b_3}\widehat k,$$ $$\,\,\,\,\,\overrightarrow c = {c_1}\widehat i + {c_2}\widehat j + {c_3}\widehat k.$$ where $$r=1, 2, 3,$$ are non-negative real numbers and $$\sum\limits_{r = 1}^3 {\left( {{a_r} + {b_r} + {c_r}} \right) = 3L,} $$ show that $$V \le {L^3}\,\,.$$Отвечать(B)The maximum possible volume V is L^3.
- 18Let $$0 < \alpha < {\pi \over 2}$$ be fixed angle. If $$P = \left( {\cos \theta ,\,\sin \theta } \right)$$ and $$Q = \left( {\cos \left( {\alpha - \theta } \right),\,\sin \left( {\alpha - \theta } \right)} \right),$$ then $$Q$$ is obtained from $$P$$ byОтвечать(D)reflection in the line through origin with slope tan $$\left( {\alpha /2} \right)$$
