Limits Question 7

Question 7 - 2024 (30 Jan Shift 1)

Let $f:\left[-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right] \rightarrow R$ be a differentiable function such that $f(0)=\frac{1}{2}$, If the $\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{x \int _0^{x} f(t) dt}{e^{x^{2}}-1}=\alpha$, then $8 \alpha^{2}$ is equal to :

(1) 16

(2) 2

(3) 1

(4) 4

Answer (2)

Solution

$\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{x \int _0^{x} f(t) d t}{\left(\frac{e^{x^{2}}-1}{x^{2}}\right) \times x^{2}}$

$\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\int _0^{x} f(t) d t}{x} \quad\left(\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{e^{x^{2}}-1}{x^{2}}=1\right)$

$=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(x)}{1} \quad$ (using L Hospital) $f(0)=\frac{1}{2}$

$\alpha=\frac{1}{2}$

$8 \alpha^{2}=2$
