- 1The position vectors of the points $$A, B, C$$ and $$D$$ are $$3\widehat i - 2\widehat j - \widehat k,\,2\widehat i + 3\widehat j - 4\widehat k,\, - \widehat i + \widehat j + 2\widehat k$$ and $$4\widehat i + 5\widehat j + \lambda \widehat k,$$
respectively. If the points $$A, B, C$$ and $$D$$ lie on a plane, find the value of $$\lambda .$$回答(C){{146} \over {17}} - 2Let $$\overrightarrow a = {a_1}i + {a_2}j + {a_3}k,\,\,\,\overrightarrow b = {b_1}i + {b_2}j + {b_3}k$$ and $$\overrightarrow c = {c_1}i + {c_2}j + {c_3}k$$ be three non-zero vectors such that $$\overrightarrow c $$ is a unit vector perpendicular to both the vectors $$\overrightarrow a $$ and $$\overrightarrow b .$$ If the angle between $$\overrightarrow a $$ and $$\overrightarrow b $$ is $${\pi \over 6},$$ then
$${\left| {\matrix{ {{a_1}} & {{a_2}} & {{a_3}} \cr {{b_1}} & {{b_2}} & {{b_3}} \cr {{c_1}} & {{c_2}} & {{c_3}} \cr } } \right|^2}$$ is equal to回答(C)$${1 \over 4}\left( {a_1^2 + a_2^2 + a_2^3} \right)\left( {b_1^2 + b_2^2 + b_3^2} \right)$$ - 11If $${C_r}$$ stands for $${}^n{C_r},$$ then the sum of the series $${{2\left( {{n \over 2}} \right){\mkern 1mu} !{\mkern 1mu} \left( {{n \over 2}} \right){\mkern 1mu} !} \over {n!}}\left[ {C_0^2 - 2C_1^2 + 3C_2^2 - } \right......... + {\left( { - 1} \right)^n}\left( {n + 1} \right)C_n^2\mathop ]\limits^ \sim \,,$$
where $$n$$ is an even positive integer, is equal to回答(C)$${\left( { - 1} \right)^{n/2}}\left( {n + 2} \right)$$ - 16A vector $$\overline a $$ has components $$2p$$ and $$1$$ with respect to a rectangular cartesian system. This system is rotated through a certain angle about the origin in the counter clockwise sense. If, with respect to the new system, $$\overline a $$ has components $$p + 1$$ and $$1$$, then回答(B)$$p = 1$$ or $$p = - {1 \over 3}$$
- 28A student appears for tests, $$I$$, $$II$$ and $$III$$. The student is successful if he passes either in tests $$I$$ and $$II$$ or tests $$I$$ and $$III$$. The probabilities of student passing in tests $$I$$, $$II$$ and $$III$$ are $$p, q$$ and $${1 \over 2}$$ respectively. If the probability that the student is successful is $${1 \over 2}$$, then回答(C)$$p=1,$$ $$q=0$$
- 30A lot contains $$20$$ articles. The probability that the lot contains exactly $$2$$ defective articles is $$0.4$$ and the probability that the lot contains exactly $$3$$ defective articles is $$0.6$$. Articles are drawn from the lot at random one by one without replacement and are tested till all defective articles are found. What is the probability that the testing procedure ends at the twelth testing.回答(B)99/1900
