Final Projected Questions for 2024 Elective Mathematics:
- Maximum Height of a Ball:
- A ball is thrown vertically upwards. Its height (h) metres at time (t) seconds is given by h=5+30t−5t2h = 5 + 30t – 5t^2. Find the maximum height reached by the ball.
- Committee Selection:
- A committee of 5 men and 3 women is to be selected from 10 men and 8 women. In how many ways can this be done if a particular woman must be in the committee?
- Centre of Gravity and Tension Calculation:
- A non-uniform beam, PQ, of weight 160 N and 100 cm long is kept horizontal by two vertical strings. Calculate the tension in each string given specific conditions.
- Unit Vector Calculation:
- Given vectors u=4i−4ju = 4i – 4j and v=3i+3jv = 3i + 3j, find the unit vector in the direction of 3u+2v3u + 2v.
- Probability of Social Media Usage:
- In a hostel, 60% use Facebook, 40% use WhatsApp, and 20% use both. Calculate probabilities related to social media usage.
- Permutations with Restrictions:
- Determine how many ways 6 players can be lined up if two particular players must not stand next to each other.
- Probability of Ball Selection:
- From a bag containing 4 green and 7 blue balls, find the probability of selecting balls with specific color combinations.
- Collision and Common Velocity:
- Two bodies of different masses collide under specified conditions. Calculate their common velocity post-collision under different scenarios.
- Gradient of Tangent:
-
The equation of a curve is x * y ^ 3 – 2x ^ 2 * y ^ 2 = 0 Find the gradient of the tangent to the curve at (1, 2)
