JEE Advanced 2024 — Paper 1 — Question 1

Let f(x)f(x) be a continuously differentiable function on the interval (0,∞)(0, \infty) such that f(1)=2f(1)=2 and lim⁡t→xt10f(x)−x10f(t)t9−x9=1\lim _{t \rightarrow x} \frac{t^{10} f(x)-x^{10} f(t)}{t^{9}-x^{9}}=1 for each x>0x>0. Then, for all x>0,f(x)x>0, f(x) is equal to

  1. Option A:

    3111x−911x10\frac{31}{11 \mathrm{x}}-\frac{9}{11} \mathrm{x}^{10}

  2. Option B:

    911x+3111x10\frac{9}{11 \mathrm{x}}+\frac{31}{11} \mathrm{x}^{10}

  3. Option C:

    −911x+3111x10\frac{-9}{11 \mathrm{x}}+\frac{31}{11} \mathrm{x}^{10}

  4. Option D:

    1311x+911x10\frac{13}{11 \mathrm{x}}+\frac{9}{11} \mathrm{x}^{10}

    Correct

Answer: D

Step-by-step solution

ℓ=14vγRTM\ell = \frac{1}{4v} \sqrt{\frac{\gamma \text{RT}}{\text{M}}}

Calculations for 14vγRTM\frac{1}{4v} \sqrt{\frac{\gamma \text{RT}}{\text{M}}} for gases mentioned in options A, B, C and D, work out to be 0.459 m, 0.363 m 0.340 m & 0.348 m respectively. As ℓ=(0.350±0.005) m\ell = (0.350 \pm 0.005)\,\text{m} ; Hence correct option is D.
