Find an angle $\theta$, where $0 < \theta < \frac{\pi}{2}$, which increases twice as fast as its sine. |
$\frac{\pi}{6}$ $\frac{\pi}{4}$ $\frac{\pi}{3}$ $\frac{\pi}{2}$ |
$\frac{\pi}{3}$ |
The correct answer is Option (3) → $\frac{\pi}{3}$ ## Let $\theta$ increases twice as fast as its sine. $\Rightarrow \frac{d\theta}{dt} = 2 \frac{d}{dt}(\sin \theta)$ Now, on differentiating both sides w.r.t. $t$, we get $\frac{d\theta}{dt} = 2 \cdot \cos \theta \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt} \Rightarrow 1 = 2 \cos \theta$ $\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2} = \cos \theta \Rightarrow \cos \theta = \cos \frac{\pi}{3}$ $∴\theta = \frac{\pi}{3}$ So, the required angle is $\frac{\pi}{3}$. |
