Let $ P_n = \alpha^n + \beta^n $, $ n \in \mathbb{N} $. If $ P_{10} = 123,\ P_9 = 76,\ P_8 = 47 $ and $ P_1 = 1 $, then the quadratic equation having roots $ \alpha $ and $ \frac{1}{\beta} $ is:
Two blocks of masses \( m \) and \( M \), \( (M > m) \), are placed on a frictionless table as shown in figure. A massless spring with spring constant \( k \) is attached with the lower block. If the system is slightly displaced and released then \( \mu = \) coefficient of friction between the two blocks.
(A) The time period of small oscillation of the two blocks is \( T = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{(m + M)}{k}} \)
(B) The acceleration of the blocks is \( a = \dfrac{kx}{M + m} \)
(\( x = \) displacement of the blocks from the mean position)
(C) The magnitude of the frictional force on the upper block is \( \dfrac{m\mu |x|}{M + m} \)
(D) The maximum amplitude of the upper block, if it does not slip, is \( \dfrac{\mu (M + m) g}{k} \)
(E) Maximum frictional force can be \( \mu (M + m) g \)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Let \( f : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \) be a twice differentiable function such that \[ (\sin x \cos y)(f(2x + 2y) - f(2x - 2y)) = (\cos x \sin y)(f(2x + 2y) + f(2x - 2y)), \] for all \( x, y \in \mathbb{R}. \)
If \( f'(0) = \frac{1}{2} \), then the value of \( 24f''\left( \frac{5\pi}{3} \right) \) is:
Solids are substances that are featured by a definite shape, volume, and high density. In the solid-state, the composed particles are arranged in several manners. Solid-state, in simple terms, means "no moving parts." Thus solid-state electronic devices are the ones inclusive of solid components that don’t change their position. Solid is a state of matter where the composed particles are arranged close to each other. The composed particles can be either atoms, molecules, or ions.

Based on the nature of the order that is present in the arrangement of their constituent particles solids can be divided into two types;
