I solved the last 2.Can anyone please help me with the first.If anyone wants the solutions to the last 2, I can post.

But here is the logic anyways:

2) Assume a+x = y and replace all x with y-a and square.Assume quadratic in a and solve for a.You will then get quadratic in y by squaring.

3) Squaring pr = 2(q+s) and then applying AM GM for q^2 and s^2 , we get p^2r^2 >= 16qs .

My approach in 1 and 3 is the use of factorization but i cant seem to make factors such that I can use the given conditions.

And I have no idea about the second question.And I dont know how we can use calculus in the questions.

1) If ax^2 + (b-c)x + a-b-c =0  has unequal real roots for all c R then prove that either b<a<0 or b>a>0.

2) Prove that for -1/4 <a <0 , the equation [2 ] (a + [2 ] (a+x) )= x has exactly two real solutions of which one is 1 + [ 2] (4a +1) /2

3) Show that if p,q,r and s are real no.s and pr=2(q+s) then at least one of the equations x^2 +px +q =0 , x^2 +rx +s =0 as real roots.

I agree completely.It will be a cycloid if seen from the ground frame only but if you are talking about radius of curvature its always performing circular motion about the instantaneous axis of rotation and I dont have any doubt that it should be 2r.

I dont think derivation is necessary and it is not taught.

Chord of contact is given by : xh/a^2 + yk/b^2 =1 where h,k is the point from where the two tangents are drawn.

NOTE: It is the same as a tangent drawn at the point h,k of an ellipse.

Arey normal force (in the second case) on the lower block is higher so friction will also be higher.But the question is still very vague.Plz type proper questions,.
Catalogs Discussion Forums -> Mechanics -> SHM -> Go to message

Without loss of generality we can say this SHM is the spring block SHM.

And we know that total energy of a particle executing SHM is 1/2mw^2a^2

Total mechanical energy = KE + PE

So 1/2 mw^2a^2 = 1/2 w^2mx^2 + 1/2mu^2

and 1/2 mw^2a^2 = 1/2 w^2my^2 + 1/2 mv^2 ( because k=w^2m)

Dividing both equations:

w^2(y^2-x^2) = (u^2-v^2)

w^2 = (u^2 - v^2)/(y^2-x^2)

T= 2pi/w = 2 [(y2-x2)/(u2-v2)]1/2

I suppose you are talking about magnitudes.

|A|^2 = |A|^2 + |B|^2 +2|A||B|cos@

and |B|^2 = |A|^2 + |B|^2 +2|A||B|cos@

=> |A| = |B|

So |A|^2 = 2|A|^2 + 2|A|^2cos@

-1/2 = cos@

@ = 2pi/3

I was comparing between Sn1 and Sn2.A stronger base favours Sn2 than Sn1 as there is no opportunity for a carbocation to be formed.

He's being sarcastic man.This question is very complicated,look at the answer yourself. Its not hard but lengthy. Assume the big block to be at rest and apply pseudo forces.

When concentration of base is very high and/or a very strong base is used, reaction proceeds by Sn2.

Plus the criteria written in the above posts.

Absolutely, z and w lie at the opposite ends of a line with mid point as origin.So their locus is the circle with centre at origin and radius z or w.
