Write the distance between the directrices of the hyperbola x=8secθ and y=8 tanθ?

Answer»

Given, x=8secθ and y=8tanθ
=> secθ=x/8 and tanθ=y/8
Now, we know that sec2θ-tan2θ=1
=> (x/8)2-(y/8)2=1
=> x2/64-y2/64=1 -------(1)
on comparing (1) with equation of hyperbola i.e.,
x2/a2-y2/b2=1, we get
a=8 and b=8
Now, eccentricity van be find out as
b2=a2(e2-1)
=> 82=82(e2-1)
=> 1=e2-1
=> e=2
Now, distance between their directrix
=a/e-(-a/e)=a/e+a/e=2a/e
= 2(8/2)=82

5 Difference between reflection and refraction.

Answer»

Difference between Reflection and Refraction

ReflectionRefraction
Reflection is when light falls on any surface, and a part of that light is sent back to the same medium.Refraction usually deforms the image, depending on the angle in which the image hits another plane or surface.
It only involves images.It may also involve sound waves other than images.
The light entering the medium returns back in the same direction.The light entering the medium travels from one medium to another.
The angle of incidence of the light is equal to the angle of reflection.The angle of incidence is not equal to the angle of reflection.
Considering the light waves, they bounce from the plane and change direction.The light waves pass through the surface while simultaneously change from medium to medium.

The balanced equation for a reaction is given below 2X + 3Y → 4I + mWhen 8 moles of x react with 15 moles of y, then i) Which is the limiting reagent?ii) Calculate the amount of products formed.iii) Calculate the amount of excess reactant left at the end of the reaction.

Answer»

2X + 3Y → 4I + m.

8 mole of x requires → 3/2 ​× 8 = 12 mole of Y

or 15 moles of Y requires → 2/3 ​× 15 = 10 moles of X

but only 8 moles of X are given so.

(i). X is limiting reagent (which decides product)

(ii). 8 moles of X gives 16I and 4m.

(iii). 3 moles of Y remains unreacted.

Measure of two quantities along with the precision of respective measuring instrument is `A=2.5ms^(-1)+-0.5ms^(-1)`,B=0.10s+-0.01s`. The value of AB will beA. `(0.25+-0.08)m`B. `(0.25+-0.5)`mC. `(0.25+-0.05)`mD. `(0.25+-0.135)`m

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`A=2.5ms^-1+-0.5ms^-1`,`B=0.10s+-0.01s`
`x=AB=(2.5)(0.10)=0.25m`
`(trianglex)/(x)=(triangleA)/(A)+(triangleB)/(B)`
`(0.5)/(2.5)+(0.1)/(0.10)=(0.05+0.025)/(0.25)=(0.075)/(0.25)`
`trianglex=0.075=0.08m`
Rounding off to two significant figures.
`AB=(0.25+-0.08)m`

11475.

You measure two quantities as `A=1.0m+-0.2m`,`B=2.0m+-0.2m`. We should report correct value for `sqrt(AB)` asA. 1.4m`+-`0.4mB. 1.41`+-`0.15mC. 1.4m`+`0.3mD. 1.4m`+-`0.2m

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Given, `A=1.0m+-0.2m`,`B=2.0+-0.2m`
Let, `Y=sqrt(AB)=sqrt((1.0)(2.0)1.414m`
Rounding off to two significant digit `Y=1.4m`
(triangleY)/(Y)=(1)/(2)[(triangleA)/(A)+(triangleB)/(B)]`
`=(1)/(2)[(0.2)/(1.0)+(0.2)/(2.0)]=(0.6)/(2xx2.0)`
`impliestriangleY=(0.6Y)/(2xx2.0)=(0.6xx1.4)/(2xx2.0)=0.212`
Rounding off to one significant digit
`triangleY=0.2m`
Thus, correct value for
`sqrt(AB)=r+triangler=1.4+-0.2m`
