Section – I {Mathematics}
1. The domain of the function, f(x) = 1
2
sin x 3is
9 x
(a) [2, 3] (b) [2, 3) (c) [1, 2] (d) [1, 2)
Ans. (b)
Solution:
Given function 1
2
sin x 3f x
9 x
will be defined, if
1 x 3 1 2 x 4 …(i)
and 9 – x2> 0 –3 < x < 3 …(ii)
From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
2 x 3
Hence, domain of the given function is [2, 3)
2. A function f from the set of natural numbers to integers defined by
n 1,when n is odd
2f n isn
, when n is even2
(a) one-one but not onto (b) onto but not one-one
(c) one-one and onto both (d) neither one-one nor onto
Ans. (c)
Solution:
Given that,
n 1, when n is odd
2f nn
, when n is even2
and f : N I, where N is the set of natural numbers and I is the set of integers.
Let x, y N both are even.
Then,f(x) = f(y)

x y
x y2 2
Again, x, y N and both are odd.
Then, f(x) = f(y)
x 1 y 1
x y2 2
So, mapping is one-one.
Since, each negative integer is an image of even natural number and positive integer is an
image of odd natural number. So, mapping is onto. Hence, mapping is one-one onto.
3. If the system of linear equations
x + 2ay + az = 0
x + 3by + bz = 0
and x + 4cy + cz = 0
has a non-zero solution, then a, b, c
(a) are in AP (b) are in GP
(c) are in HP (d) satisfy a + 2b + 3c = 0
Ans. (c)
Solution :
Since, the system of linear equations has a non-zero solutions, then
1 2a a
1 3b b 0
1 4c c
Applying 2 2 1 3 3 1R R R ,R R R
1 2a a
0 3b 2a b a 0
0 4c 2a c a
3b 2a c a 4c 2a b a 0
3bc – 3ba – 2ac + 2a2
= 4bc – 2ab – 4ac + 2a2
2ac = bc + ab
On dividing by abc both sides, we get

singular matrices.
Similarly,
* * 1
* 1 *
1 * *
gives at least one non-singular.

51. In the circuit shown in fig, I2 = 3A in the steady state. The potential difference across the 4 resistor is
(a) 12 V (b) 18 V (c) 20 V (d) 24 V
Ans. (c)
Solution:
In the steady state, the resistance of the inductor is zero, i.e. it behaves as a short circuit. Hence the
circuit can be drawn as follows. Fig
I2 = 3 A. Therefore, p.d. across 1 + 3 = 4 resistance = 3 × 4 = 12 V. Hence 1
12I 2A.

Therefore I = I1 + I2 = 2 + 3 = 5A, which is the current flowing through 4 resistance. So p.d. across
4 resistance = 5 × 4 = 20 V.

86. For a zero-order reaction, the plot of [A]t versus t for a reaction A B is linear with a
(a) positive slope and zero intercept (b) positive slope and nonzero intercept
(c) negative slope and zero intercept (d) negative slope and nonzero intercept
Ans. (d)
Solution:
For a zero order reaction A B , we have –d[A]/dt = k, which on integration gives t 0[A] [A] kt.
Slope is –k and intercept is [A]0.
