Find the value of \(\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \dfrac{(a+h)^2 \sin (a+h)-a^2 \sin a}{h}\)

  1. A \(1\)
  2. B \(-a^2 \sin a\)
  3. C \(0\)
  4. D \(a^2 \cos a+2 a \sin a\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(a^2 \cos a+2 a \sin a\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The given limit is of the form \(f'(a) = \lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{f(a+h) - f(a)}{h}\) where \(f(x) = x^2 \sin x\) Differentiating using product rule: \(f'(x) = 2x \sin x + x^2 \cos x\) At \(x = a\): \(f'(a) = 2a \sin a + a^2 \cos a\)
