Let $R$ be a relation on $R$, given by $R=\{(a, b): 3 a-3 b+\sqrt{7}$ is an irrational number $\}$Then $R$ is
- reflexive and symmetric but not transitive
- reflexive and transitive but not symmetric
- reflexive but neither symmetric nor transitive
- an equivalence relation
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
As
which belongs to relation so relation is reflexive
Check for symmetric:
Take
Now (a, b) but
As
which is rational so relation is not symmetric.
Check for Transitivity:
Take (a, b) as
as
So now (a, b) but which means relation is not transitive

Two light beams fall on a transparent material block at point 1 and 2 with angle \( \theta_1 \) and \( \theta_2 \), respectively, as shown in the figure. After refraction, the beams intersect at point 3 which is exactly on the interface at the other end of the block. Given: the distance between 1 and 2, \( d = \frac{4}{3} \) cm and \( \theta_1 = \theta_2 = \cos^{-1} \left( \frac{n_2}{2n_1} \right) \), where \( n_2 \) is the refractive index of the block and \( n_1 \) is the refractive index of the outside medium, then the thickness of the block is …….. cm.

Concepts Used:
Operations on Sets
Some important operations on sets include union, intersection, difference, and the complement of a set, a brief explanation of operations on sets is as follows:
1. Union of Sets:
- The union of sets lists the elements in set A and set B or the elements in both set A and set B.
- For example, {3,4} ∪ {1, 4} = {1, 3, 4}
- It is denoted as “A U B”
2. Intersection of Sets:
- Intersection of sets lists the common elements in set A and B.
- For example, {3,4} ∪ {1, 4} = {4}
- It is denoted as “A ∩ B”
3.Set Difference:
- Set difference is the list of elements in set A which is not present in set B
- For example, {3,4} - {1, 4} = {3}
- It is denoted as “A - B”
4.Set Complement:
- The set complement is the list of all elements present in the Universal set except the elements present in set A
- It is denoted as “U-A”
