- Given function
f(x)={x3sin(x1),0,x=0x=0
We need to check the given statements about f′′(0) and f′′(π2).
- First derivative at x=0
By definition,
f′(0)=h→0limhf(h)−f(0)=h→0limhh3sin(1/h)=h→0limh2sin(1/h)
Since ∣sin(1/h)∣≤1,
∣h2sin(1/h)∣≤h2→0
So,
f′(0)=0
- Second derivative at x=0
Using the definition,
f′′(0)=h→0limhf′(h)−f′(0)=h→0limhf′(h)
So first find f′(x) for x=0.
For x=0,
f(x)=x3sin(x1)
Differentiate using product rule:
f′(x)=3x2sin(x1)+x3cos(x1)(−x21)
Hence,
f′(x)=3x2sin(x1)−xcos(x1)
Therefore,
hf′(h)=3hsin(h1)−cos(h1)
Now as h→0:
- 3hsin(1/h)→0
- but cos(1/h) has no limit.
So the limit does not exist.
Hence,
f′′(0) does not exist
Therefore:
- A: f′′(0)=0 is false
- B: f′′(0)=1 is false
- Second derivative for x=0
We already have
f′(x)=3x2sin(x1)−xcos(x1)
Differentiate again:
f′′(x)=dxd(3x2sin(x1))−dxd(xcos(x1))
Now,
dxd(3x2sin(x1))=6xsin(x1)+3x2cos(x1)(−x21)
=6xsin(x1)−3cos(x1)
Also,
dxd(xcos(x1))=cos(x1)+x[−sin(x1)(−x21)]
=cos(x1)+xsin(1/x)
Thus,
f′′(x)=6xsin(x1)−3cos(x1)−cos(x1)−xsin(1/x)
So,
f′′(x)=6xsin(x1)−4cos(x1)−xsin(1/x)
- Evaluate at x=π2
If
x=π2⇒x1=2π
Then,
sin(x1)=sin(2π)=1,cos(x1)=cos(2π)=0
Substitute into f′′(x):
f′′(π2)=6(π2)(1)−4(0)−2/π1
=π12−2π
Take LCM 2π:
π12−2π=2π24−π2
Hence,
f′′(π2)=2π24−π2
So:
- Final conclusion
The only correct option is
C
