  1. Let $f$ and $g$ be real valued functions defined on interval $(-1,1)$ such that $g^{\prime \prime}(x)$ is continuous, $g(0) \neq 0, g^{\prime}(0)=0$, $g^{\prime \prime}(0) \neq 0$, and $f(x)=g(x) \sin x$.

Statement I $\lim _{x \rightarrow 0}[g(x) \cos x-g(0) \operatorname{cosec} x]=f^{\prime \prime}(0)$ and

Statement II $f^{\prime}(0)=g(0)$.

Answer:

Correct Answer: 36.(b)

Solution: (b) Statement II

We have, $\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{g(x) \cos x-g(0)}{\sin x} \quad $ $ \left[\frac{0}{0} \text { form }\right] $

$ =\quad \lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{g^{\prime}(x) \cos x-g(x) \sin x}{\cos x}=0 $

Since, $f(x)=g(x) \sin x$

$ f^{\prime}(x)=g^{\prime}(x) \sin x+g(x) \cos x $

and $f^{\prime \prime}(x)=g^{\prime \prime}(x) \sin x+2 g^{\prime}(x) \cos x-g(x) \sin x$ $ \quad \Rightarrow \quad f^{\prime \prime}(0)=0$

Thus, $\lim _{x \rightarrow 0}[g(x) \cos x-g(0) \operatorname{cosec} x]=0=f^{\prime \prime}(0)$

$\Rightarrow \quad$ Statement I is true.

Statement II $f^{\prime}(x)=g^{\prime}(x) \sin x+g(x) \cos x$ $\quad \Rightarrow \quad f^{\prime}(0)=g(0)$

Statement II is not a correct explanation of Statement I.
