MCQ
The area bounded by $= 4ax$ and $y = mx$ is $\frac{\text{a}^2}{3}\text{sq. units}$ then $m:$
  • A
    $1$
  • $2$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $4$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$2$
The two curves $y^2=4 a x$ and $y = mx$ intersect at
$=\Big(\frac{4\text{a}}{\text{m}^2},\frac{4\text{a}}{\text{m}}\Big)$ and the area enclosed by the two curves are given by
$=\int\limits^\frac{4\text{a}}{\text{m}2}_0\Big(\sqrt{4\text{ax}}-\text{mx}\Big)\text{dx}$
$\therefore\int\limits^\frac{4\text{a}}{\text{m}^2}\Big(\sqrt{4\text{ax}}-\text{mx}\Big)\text{dx}=\frac{\text{a}^2}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{8}{3}.\frac{\text{a}^2}{\text{m}^3}=\frac{\text{a}^2}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\text{m}^3=8$
$\Rightarrow\text{m}=2$
