Question
In DABC, AD is the median through A and E is the produced meets in F figure. Then the value of AF is equal to
- 1/4AC
- 1/2AC
- 1/3AC
- 2/3AC.
The correct answer is: 1/3AC
We should find value of AF in terms of AC
In ΔADG
E is the midpoint of AD and EF∣∣DG
By converse of midpoint theorem we have
F is midpoint of AG and AF=FG ..............1
Similarly, in ΔBCF
D is the midpoint of BC and DG∣∣BF
G is midpoint of CF and FG=GC ..............2
From equations 1 and 2
we will get
AF=FG=GC........3
AF+FG+GC=AC
AF+AF+AF=AC ......... from eq 3
AF=AC
AF=(1/3)AC
Hence AF=(1/3)AC

Figure shows the roller coaster track. Each car will start from rest at point A and will roll with negligible friction. It is important that there should be at least some small positive normal force exerted by the track on the car at all points, otherwise the car would leave the track. With the above fact, the minimum safe value for the radius of curvature at point B is (g = 10 ):
