Correct answer: B, C, D
Step 1: Evaluate the limit to find a differential equation.
The given limit is:
L=t→xlimt−xf(x)sint−f(t)sinx
As t→x, the numerator becomes f(x)sinx−f(x)sinx=0 and the denominator becomes x−x=0. This is a 00 indeterminate form, so we can apply L'Hôpital's rule by differentiating the numerator and denominator with respect to t.
L=t→xlimdtd(t−x)dtd(f(x)sint−f(t)sinx)=t→xlim1f(x)cost−f′(t)sinx
Substituting t=x, we get:
L=f(x)cosx−f′(x)sinx
We are given that L=sin2x. Therefore, we have the differential equation:
f(x)cosx−f′(x)sinx=sin2x
Rearranging the terms, we get:
f′(x)sinx−f(x)cosx=−sin2x
Step 2: Solve the differential equation.
For x∈(0,π), sinx=0. We can divide the equation by sin2x:
sin2xf′(x)sinx−f(x)cosx=−1
The left-hand side is the derivative of a quotient, specifically dxd(sinxf(x)).
So, the equation becomes:
dxd(sinxf(x))=−1
Integrating both sides with respect to x:
∫dxd(sinxf(x))dx=∫−1dxsinxf(x)=−x+C
where C is the constant of integration. Thus, the general solution is:
f(x)=(C−x)sinx
We use the given condition f(π/6)=−π/12 to find C.
f(6π)=(C−6π)sin(6π)=(C−6π)21−12π=21(C−6π)−6π=C−6π
This gives C=0. Therefore, the function is:
f(x)=−xsinx
Step 3: Evaluate each option.
Option A:f(4π)=42π
Let's calculate f(π/4) using our function:
f(4π)=−4πsin(4π)=−4π⋅21=−42π
The calculated value does not match the value given in the option. So, option A is FALSE.
Option B:f(x)<6x4−x2 for all x ∈(0, π)
Substituting f(x)=−xsinx, the inequality becomes:
−xsinx<6x4−x2x2−xsinx<6x4
Since x∈(0,π), x>0, so we can divide by x:
x−sinx<6x3
Let's define a function g(x)=6x3−(x−sinx). We want to show g(x)>0 for x∈(0,π).
Let's analyze its derivatives:
g(0)=0−(0−0)=0.
g′(x)=63x2−(1−cosx)=2x2−1+cosx. So, g′(0)=0−1+1=0.
g′′(x)=x−sinx. For x>0, it is a known result that x>sinx. Thus, g′′(x)>0 for x∈(0,π).
Since g′′(x)>0, g′(x) is a strictly increasing function. For x>0, g′(x)>g′(0)=0.
Since g′(x)>0, g(x) is also a strictly increasing function. For x>0, g(x)>g(0)=0.
Therefore, the inequality x−sinx<6x3 holds for x∈(0,π).
So, option B is TRUE.
Option C: There exists α∈(0, π) such that f'(α) = 0
We have the function f(x)=−xsinx. This function is continuous on [0,π] and differentiable on (0,π).
Let's evaluate the function at the endpoints of the interval [0,π]:
f(0)=−0⋅sin(0)=0.
f(π)=−π⋅sin(π)=0.
Since f(0)=f(π), by Rolle's Theorem, there must exist at least one point α∈(0,π) such that f′(α)=0.
So, option C is TRUE.
Option D:f′′(2π)+f(2π)=0
First, find the first and second derivatives of f(x)=−xsinx.
f′(x)=−(1⋅sinx+x⋅cosx)=−sinx−xcosx.
f′′(x)=−cosx−(1⋅cosx+x(−sinx))=−cosx−cosx+xsinx=xsinx−2cosx.
Now, evaluate f(π/2) and f′′(π/2):
f(2π)=−2πsin(2π)=−2π(1)=−2πf′′(2π)=2πsin(2π)−2cos(2π)=2π(1)−2(0)=2π
Now, check the condition:
f′′(2π)+f(2π)=2π+(−2π)=0
The condition is satisfied. So, option D is TRUE.
