The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

\(S_n\)={z∈C:|z−3+2i|=\(\frac{n}{4}\)}
represents a circle with centre C1(3, –2) and radius
r1=\(\frac{n}{4}\)
Similarly,
Tn represents circle with centre C2(2, –3) and radius
r2=\(\frac{1}{n}\)
As S∩ Tn = φ
C1C2>r1 + r2 OR C1C2< |r1 – r2|
\(\sqrt2\)>\(\frac{n}{4}+\frac{1}{n}\)
OR
\(\sqrt2\)<|\(\frac{n}{4}-\frac{1}{n}\)|
n = 1, 2, 3, 4 may take infinite values.

The Correct Option is (C): Infinite
