If $x=3 \cos t$ and $y=4 \sin t$, then $\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}$ at the point $\left(x_0,…
If $x=3 \cos t$ and $y=4 \sin t$, then $\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}$ at the point $\left(x_0, y_0\right)=\left(\frac{3}{2} \sqrt{2}, 2 \sqrt{2}\right)$, is
- $\frac{4 \sqrt{2}}{9}$
- $-\frac{4 \sqrt{2}}{9}$
- $\frac{8 \sqrt{2}}{9}$
- $-\frac{8 \sqrt{2}}{9}$
Solution
We have,
$
\begin{aligned}
& x=3 \cos t \text { and } y=4 \sin t \\
& \Rightarrow \quad \frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{16}=\cos ^2 t+\sin ^2 t \\
& \Rightarrow \quad \frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{16}=1 \\
& \Rightarrow \frac{2 x}{9}+\frac{2 y}{16} \frac{d y}{d x}=0 \\
& \Rightarrow \quad \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{-16}{9} \frac{x}{y} \\
& \Rightarrow \quad \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=\frac{-16}{9}\left[\frac{1 \cdot y-x \frac{d y}{d x}}{y^2}\right] \\
& \Rightarrow \quad \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=\frac{-16}{9}\left[\frac{y-x-\left(\frac{-16}{9} \frac{x}{y}\right)}{y^2}\right] \\
& =\frac{-16}{9}\left[\frac{9 y^2+16 x^2}{9 y^3}\right]=\frac{-16}{9} \times \frac{144}{9 y^3}\left[\because \frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{16}=1\right] \\
& =\frac{-16 \times 144}{81 \times(2 \sqrt{2})^3} \quad\left[\because\left(x_0, y_0\right)=\left(\frac{3 \sqrt{2}}{2}, 2 \sqrt{2}\right)\right] \\
& =\frac{-16 \times 144}{81 \times 16 \sqrt{2}}=\frac{-144}{81 \times \sqrt{2}}=\frac{-16}{9 \sqrt{2}}=\frac{-8 \sqrt{2}}{9} \\
&
\end{aligned}
