Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\dfrac{1}{2 a^{\dfrac{3}{2}}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the given limit be \(L = \lim_{x \rightarrow 0} \dfrac{\sqrt{a+x} - \sqrt{a}}{x \sqrt{a(a+x)}}\). Rationalizing the numerator by multiplying and dividing by \((\sqrt{a+x} + \sqrt{a})\):…
