You may get a rank of around 2000 in JEE which is respectable. In AIEEE your rank may be around 7500.

Brewster's law : A physical law asserting that when light is reflected from the surface of an object at the Brewster's angle, the reflected and refracted rays will be perpendicular. Brewster's law may be used to determine the refractive index of an object.

Since reflected and refracted ray are perpendicular :
i + r = pi/2

(n1)sini = (n2)sinr
(n1)sini = (n2)sin(pi/2 - i)
(n1)sini = (n2)cosi
tani = (n2)/(n1)

Suppose w work is done on the system and heat given to the system is q.
Then change in internal energy = q + w
This equation is used in chemistry where work done on the system is taken positive.

In physics , work done w by the system is taken positive.
So work done on the system is -w.
Hence change in internal energy = heat given to system+work done on system = q-w

Its just the matter of sign convention and nothing else.

Clearly specify the limit , is it x tends to 'a' or x tends to infinity??
 
If it is x tends to infinity.
L = [x][infinity] ax sin(b/ax)
 
If |a| < 1 , ax tends to 0 as x tends to infinity.
In that case , L = (something tending to 0)x(a value between 1 and -1) = 0
 
If |a| = 1 , L = sinb
 
If |a| > 1 , ax tends to infinity as x tends to infinity.
Hence b/ax tends to 0 as x tends to infinity.
So sin(b/ax) tends to b/ax.
Hence L = [x][infinity] ax sin(b/ax) = [x][infinity] ax (b/ax) = b
 
Hence , limit = 0       if  |a| < 1
 
                   = sinb   if  |a| = 1 
 
                   = b       if  |a| > 1

Let a function g be defined as :
g(x) = (x-a)(x-b)f(x)

Since f(x) is continuous in [a,b] and differentiable in (a,b) , hence g(x) is also continuous in [a,b] and differentiable in (a,b).

Now g(a) = 0 and g(b) = 0

Hence Rolle's theorem is applicable to g(x) in (a,b).
There exists at least one c in (a,b) for which g'(c) = 0

g'(x) = (x-a)f(x) + (x-b)f(x) + (x-a)(x-b)f'(x)
g'(c) = (c-a)f(c) + (c-b)f(c) + (c-a)(c-b)f'(c) = 0

Divide the whole equation be (c-a)(c-b)f(c) :
1/(c-b) + 1/(c-a) + f'(c)/f(c) = 0

f'(c)/f(c) = 1/(a-c) + 1/(b-c)

Let M be the mid-point of AB.
Then M is {(3+5)/2,(4-2)/2} = (4,1).
Since PA = PB , triangle is isoceles whose base is AB and altitude is PM.
AB = {(3-5)2 + (4+2)2}1/2 = 401/2
 
Now let P be (h,k)
PA = PB
{(h-3)2 + (k-4)2}1/2 = {(h-5)2 + (k+2)2}1/2
h - 3k = 1.............(1)Area = (1/2)(PM)(AB) = 10
 
(1/2)(401/2)(PM) = 10
PM = 101/2
PM2 = 10
(h-4)2 + (k-1)2 = 10
(1+3k-4)2 + (k-1)2 = 10  { from(1) : h = 1+3k}
(3k-3)2 + (k-1)2 = 10
9(k-1)2 + (k-1)2 = 10
10(k-1)2 = 10
(k-1)2 = 1
k-1 = 1
k = 0 , 2
 
Hence h = 1+3k = 1 , 7
 
Hence possible P are (1,0) and (7,2).

Equation of line joining (2,-1) and (5,-3) :

y+1 = {(-1+3)/(2-5)}.(x-2)
2x + 3y = 1

Since (a,4) and (-2,b) lies on it , they will satisfy the the above equation.

2a + 3(4) = 1
a = -11/2

2(-2) + 3b = 1
b = 5/3

Let in equilibrium position the string make an angle of x with the vetical.
Then sinx = 1/20
Clearly draw free body diagram and everything would be clear.
 
Balance vertical forces :
Tcosx = mg
T = mgsecx.............(1)
 
Balance horizontal forces :
Tsinx = qE
(mgsecx)sinx = qE
mgtanx = (1/40)q2/32
 
This equation contains only m as unknown and hence m can be found out.
After m is known , put m in (1) to get the value of T.

Divide nemerator and denominator by x.
 
L = [x][infinity] {6a(1+ a/x + a2/x2) - (1+a2/x2)} / {a(6 + 2a/x - 1/ax2) - e1/x}
L = (6a-1)/(6a-1)
 
L = 1

Let the velocity at the top of the window be u.
Journey through the window :
1 = u(0.1) + (1/2)g(0.1)2
u = 9.5 m/s
 
Hence distance travelled upto the top of the window, x1 = u2/2g = 4.5125 m
Distance travelled through the window, x2 = 1 m
 
Velocity at the bottom of the window, v = u + g(0.1) = 10.5 m/s
Time taken by the ball to return to the window from the ground = 2 sec
Hence time taken to reach the ground from the bottom of window = 1 sec
Distance travelled from bottom of window to the ground, x3 =(10.5)1+(1/2)(10)12
x3 = 15.5
 
Hence height = x1 + x2 + x3 = 4.5125 + 1 + 15.5 = 21.0125 m

x = vt/2
 
We know : v = dx/dt
 
x = (dx/dt).t/2
2dt/t = dx/x
 
Integrating both the sides :
2lnt + c = lnx (where c is the constant of integration)
ln(ec.t2) = ln(x)
 
x = ec.t2
dx/dt = ec.(2t)
acceleration = d2x/dt2 = d(dx/dt)/dt = d{ec.(2t)}/dt = 2ec (a constant)
 
Hence acceleration is constant.

L = [x][0] (36x - 9x - 4x + 1)/{2 - (1+cosx)} which is in the form of 0/0 .
 
Numerator , N = (36x - 9x - 4x + 1) = (9x.4x - 9x - 4x + 1) = (9x - 1)(4x - 1)
 
Denominator, D = {2 - (1+cosx)}.{2 + (1+cosx)}/{2 + (1+cosx)} (rationalize)
                       = (1 - cosx)/{2 + (1+cosx)}
                       = {2sin2(x/2)}/{2 + (1+cosx)}
As x tends to zero sin2(x/2) tends to (x/2)2
Hence [x][0] D = 2(x/2)2}/{2 + (1+1)} = x2/42
 
Hence L = [x][0] N/D
 
L = [x][0] (9x - 1)(4x - 1)/{x2/42}
 
L = [x][0] {(9x - 1)/x}.{(4x - 1)/x}.(42)
 
Now use [x][0] (ax - 1)/x = loga
 
L = (42).(log4).(log9)
L = (162).(log2).(log3)

When the two spherical shells are combined let the mass be M and radius be R of new spherical shell.
Let the surface density be d.
Then d = M1/(4R12) = M2/(4R22) = M/(4R2).....................(1)
 
Potentials at the centre :
V1 = -GM1/R1
V2 = -GM2/R2
V1 : V2 = (M1/R1)/(M2/R2) = 2/3..................................(2)
 
M = M1 + M2 ............................................(3)
(4R2)d = (4R12)d + (4R22)d
R2 = R12 + R22 ............................................(4)
 
From (1) and (2) :
(R1/R2) = 2/3.....................................(5)
(M1/M2) = (R1/R2)2 = 4/9.....................(6)
 
Potential : V = -GM/R   = -G(M1 + M2)/(R12 + R22)1/2
V = -G((4/9)M2 + M2)/((4/9)R22 + R22)1/2 = (131/2/3)M2/R2
 
Hence V1 : V2 : V = (2/3) : 1 : (131/2/3) = 2 : 3 : 131/2

You are doing the right book. Doing such type of problems would definitely improve your problem solving skills and analyticity.But yes you should solve selective problems because doing whole of them would require a lot of time. Dont think that you are doing wrong book , solving subjective problems is a big step towards increasing your speed and then go for objective problems to give the final touch.

Gupta tutorials is one of the best in Indore. Sri chaitanya academy is also good. Regarding correspondence course I would suggest you to join only test series and solve problems from standard books. Stil if you want , go for FIITJEE-RSM.
