Limits Continuity And Differentiability Question 115

Question: If f(x) is differentiable everywhere, then which one of the following is correct?

Options:

A) $ | f | $ is differentiable everywhere

B) $ {{| f |}^{2}} $ is differentiable everywhere

C) $ f| f | $ is not differentiable at some points

D) None of the above

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

If f(x) is differential everywhere then |f| is not differentiable at some point, so, $ f| x | $ is not differentiable at some point.

[Example: f(x) = x is differentiable everywhere but |f(x)|= |x| is not differentiable at x = 0]
