    Find the slope of the normal based on the position of the stick

    A) 360

    B) -360

    C) \[\frac{1}{360}\]

    D) \[-\frac{1}{360}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[\frac{dy}{dx}=f'(x)=12(4{{x}^{3}}-x)\] Slope of normal  \[=-\frac{1}{12x(4{{x}^{2}}-1)}\] At point (2, 3), slope \[=-\frac{1}{12\times 2(16-1)}=-\frac{1}{12\times 15}=-\frac{1}{360}\]
