The rate of change of area of a circle of radius is (1) (2) (3) (4)
-
(1)
-
(2)
-
(3)
-
(4)
Correct Answer
A. (2)Explanation
The rate of change of the area of a circle with respect to its radius is given by the formula 2Ï€r. This means that for every unit increase in the radius, the area of the circle increases by 2Ï€ times the radius. Therefore, the correct answer is (2), as it represents the correct formula for the rate of change of the area of a circle.Rate this question:

The radius of a cylinder is increasing at the rate of and its altitude is decreasing at the rate of . The rate of change of volume when the radius is and the altitude is is (1) (2) (3) (4)
-
(1)
-
(2)
-
(3)
-
(4)
Correct Answer
A. (2)Explanation
The rate of change of volume of a cylinder can be found using the formula dV/dt = πr^2dh/dt + 2πrhdr/dt. In this case, the radius is increasing at a rate of and the altitude is decreasing at a rate of . Plugging these values into the formula, we get dV/dt = π( )^2( ) + 2π( )( ). Simplifying this expression gives us dV/dt = 2π( )^2( ) - 2π( )( ). Therefore, the rate of change of volume when the radius is and the altitude is is given by option (2).Rate this question:

If the velocity of a particle moving along a straight line is directly proportional to the square of its distance from a fixed point on the line. Then its acceleration is proportional to (1) (2) (3) (4)
-
(1)
-
(2)
-
(3)
-
(4)
Correct Answer
A. (3)Explanation
The given statement states that the velocity of a particle is directly proportional to the square of its distance from a fixed point on the line. This implies that as the distance from the fixed point increases, the velocity of the particle also increases. Acceleration, on the other hand, is the rate at which the velocity of an object changes. Since the velocity is directly proportional to the square of the distance, the rate at which the velocity changes (acceleration) will also be directly proportional to the distance. Therefore, the acceleration is proportional to the distance, which corresponds to answer choice (3).Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. (3)Explanation
The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated by adding the lengths of all four sides. In this case, we are looking for the least possible perimeter for a rectangle of a given area. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying its length and width. In order to minimize the perimeter, we need to find the smallest possible combination of length and width that still gives us the given area. The only option that satisfies this condition is option (3), 40, as it can be achieved by having a length of 10 and a width of 4, or a length of 20 and a width of 2.Rate this question:

-
(1)
-
(2)
-
(3)
-
(4)
Correct Answer
A. (3)Explanation
The correct answer is (3).
The given expression for velocity is v(t) = At + B, where A and B are constants. The acceleration is the derivative of velocity with respect to time, which is the rate of change of velocity. Taking the derivative of v(t), we get a(t) = A.
Therefore, the acceleration is a constant value A, which is independent of time.Rate this question:

-
(1)
-
(2)
-
(3)
-
(4)
Correct Answer
A. (1)Explanation
The curve in option (1) is concave down because it is shaped like a frown. In a concave down curve, the slope of the curve decreases as you move from left to right. This means that the curve is curving downwards and getting steeper as you move towards the right.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. (4)Explanation
The point of inflexion of a curve occurs when the second derivative of the curve changes sign. In other words, it is the point where the curve changes concavity. If the second derivative is positive, the curve is concave up, and if it is negative, the curve is concave down. If the second derivative does not change sign, there is no point of inflexion. Therefore, the correct answer is (4) nowhere, indicating that the curve does not have a point of inflexion.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. (4)Explanation
The point on the curve at which the tangent is parallel to the - axis is (4). This is because when the tangent is parallel to the - axis, it means that the slope of the tangent is zero. In other words, the derivative of the curve at that point is zero. Only (4) satisfies this condition, as the curve at that point has a horizontal tangent.Rate this question:

-
(1)
-
(2)
-
(3)
-
(4)
Correct Answer
A. (2)Explanation
When the normal to a curve makes an angle θ with the x-axis, the slope of the normal is given by tan(θ). The tangent of an angle is equal to the opposite side divided by the adjacent side in a right triangle. In this case, the opposite side represents the change in y-coordinate and the adjacent side represents the change in x-coordinate. Therefore, the slope of the normal is equal to the change in y-coordinate divided by the change in x-coordinate, which is the definition of slope. Thus, the correct answer is (2).Rate this question:

A. (4)Explanation
The rate of increase of a function is given by its derivative. In this question, we are looking for a value of x where the rate of increase of f(x) is twice the rate of increase of g(x). Let's assume f'(x) represents the rate of increase of f(x) and g'(x) represents the rate of increase of g(x). We need to find a value of x where f'(x) = 2g'(x). Therefore, the correct answer is (4), as it represents the equation f'(x) = 2g'(x).Rate this question:

-
(1)
-
(2)
-

-
(4)
Correct Answer
A. (2)Explanation
The value of x that makes the curves intersect orthogonally can be found by setting the derivatives of the curves equal to each other and solving for x. This is because when two curves intersect orthogonally, the tangent lines at the point of intersection are perpendicular to each other, which means their slopes are negative reciprocals. By setting the derivatives equal to each other, we can find the x-coordinate of the point of intersection. Therefore, the correct answer is (2).Rate this question:
