For a partial differential equation, in a function φ (x, y) and two variables x, y, what is the form obtained after separation of variables is applied?
  • a)
    Φ (x, y) = X(x) + Y(y)
  • b)
    Φ (x, y) = X(x) - Y(y)
  • c)
    Φ (x, y) = X(x) / Y(y)
  • d)
    Φ (x, y) = X(x)Y(y)
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Veda Institute answered
The method of separation of variables relies upon the assumption that a function of the form,
Φ (x, y) = X(x)Y(y)
will be a solution to a linear homogeneous partial differential equation in x and y. This is called a product solution and provided the boundary conditions are also linear and homogeneous this will also satisfy the boundary conditions.

Understanding Conic Sections
Conic sections are curves obtained by intersecting a cone with a plane. The type of curve formed depends on the angle of the intersecting plane. The primary conic sections include circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas.
Why Circle is a Conic Section
- A circle is formed when the intersecting plane is perpendicular to the axis of the c

Understanding Skew Hermitian Matrices
A Skew Hermitian matrix is defined by the property that its conjugate transpose is equal to its negative. In mathematical terms, for a matrix A, it holds that A* = -A, where A* is the conjugate transpose of A.
Diagonal Elements of Skew Hermitian Matrices
The diagonal elements of a Skew Hermitian matrix have special characteristics:

Veda Institute answered
To find the distance between two parallel planes, we follow the method given below. Method:Find the perpendicular distance of each plane from the origin with proper sign (i.e. do not. lake the mod). Ther. their differeee is the required distance between two parallel planes. Let d. and d, be the distances of the planes 
2x -2y + z + 3 =0 ...(i)
and 4x - 4y + 2z + 5 = 0 ...(ii)

If r > p > q, the number of different selections of p + q things taking r at a time, where p things are identical and q other things are identical, is
  • a)
    p + q - r
  • b)
    q + q - r + 1
  • c)
    r - p - q + 1
  • d)
    non of these
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Veda Institute answered
 The number of selections of p things from p identical things and r - p things from q identical things = 1 x 1

Similarly in all other cases, 
∴ the total number of ways
= p - (r - q )+ 1 or q - (r - p) + 1
= p + q - r + l

Understanding the Problem
To solve for the cardinality of the set C containing integer pairs (a, b), we need to analyze the cubic polynomial given by:
- p(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 + ax - b
The roots r1, r2, and r3 satisfy the condition:

  • a)
     Circle
  • b)
     Rectangle
  • c)
     Triangle
  • d)
     Square
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Veda Institute answered
Circle is a conic section. When the plane cuts the right circular cone at right angles with the axis of the cone, the shape obtained is called as a circle. If the angle is oblique we get the other parts of the conic sections.

Unitary Matrices Product

Unitary matrices are matrices that satisfy the property: U*U^H = I, where U^H is the conjugate transpose of U and I is the identity matrix.

Product of Two Unitary Matrices

When you multiply two unitary matrices together, the result is also a unitary matrix. This can be proven as follows:

This statement appears to be incomplete. It seems to be introducing a variable or a term T1 that is related to a set V, but without further context or information, it is difficult to determine the specific meaning or purpose of T1 in relation to V. Can you provide more details or clarify the context in which T1 : V is being used?

= 0 implies that the variable X has no variance or variability. In other words, it means that X always takes on the same value, so there is no difference between the expected value of X squared and the square of the expected value of X. This is a special case and not true for most random variables.

b) R > 0 implies that the variable X has some variance or variability. In this case, ther
