Q73.If the curves, x2 −6x + y2 + 8 = 0 and x2 −8y + y2 + 16 −k = 0, (k > 0) touch each other at a point, then the largest value of k is ____________. → → → → π If →a

What This Question Tests

This problem involves finding the centers and radii of two circles from their general equations and then applying the condition for two circles to touch externally or internally (distance between centers equals sum or difference of radii).

Concepts Tested

Equation of a circleRadius and center of a circleCondition for touching circles

Formulas Used

(x-h)² + (y-k)² = r²

Distance between centers = |r1 ± r2|

9.17 (a) sin i¢c = 1.44/1.68 which gives i¢c = 59°. Total internal reflection takes place when i > 59° or when r < rmax = 31°. Now, (sin i /sin r max max ) = 1.68 , which gives imax ~ 60°. Thus, all incident rays of angles in the range 0 < i < 60° will suffer total internal reflections in the pipe. (If the length of the pipe is finite, which it is in practice, there will be a lower limit on i determined by the ratio of the diameter to the length of the pipe.) (b) If there is no outer coating, i¢c = sin–1(1/1.68) = 36.5°. Now, i = 90° will have r = 36.5° and i¢ = 53.5° which is greater than i¢c. Thus, all incident rays (in the range 53.5° < i < 90°) will suffer total internal reflections.
