$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{y \to 0} \frac{{\sqrt {1 + \sqrt {1 + {y^4}} }  - \sqrt 2 }}{{{y^4}}} = $
  • exists and equals $\frac{1}{{4\sqrt 2 }}$
  • B
    exists and equals $\frac{1}{{2\sqrt 2 \left( {\sqrt 2  + 1} \right)}}$
  • C
    exists and equals $\frac{1}{{2\sqrt 2 }}$
  • D
    does not exist

Answer

Correct option: A.
exists and equals $\frac{1}{{4\sqrt 2 }}$
a
${\left( {1 + x} \right)^n} \cong 1 + nx$   (when $x \to 0$)

So, $\sqrt {1 + {y^4}}  = 1 + \frac{{{y^4}}}{2}$

$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{y \to 0} \frac{{\sqrt {2 + \frac{{{y^4}}}{2}}  - \sqrt 2 }}{{{y^4}}}$

$ = \frac{{\sqrt 2 \left( {1 + \frac{{{y^4}}}{8} - 1} \right)}}{{{y^4}}} = \frac{{\sqrt 2 }}{8} = \frac{1}{{4\sqrt 2 }}$
