Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
given \(|a-b| \geq 2\) so if

i.e. Total elements in \(\mathrm{X}\) is \({ }^{20} \mathrm{C}_6\)
Now for \(\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{Y})\),
range of \(\mathrm{R}\) has exactly one element i.e. second elements must be constant in \(\mathrm{R}\) and since \(\mathrm{R}\) must have 6 element so it is not possible to satisfy both condition so \(\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{Y})=0\).
\(\begin{aligned} & \text { for } \quad n(z) \\ & 1 \rightarrow 3,4,5,6 \\ & 2 \rightarrow 4,5,6 \\ & 3 \rightarrow 1,5,6 \\ & 4 \rightarrow 1,2,6 \\ & 5 \rightarrow 1,2,3 \\ & 6 \rightarrow 1,2,3,4 \\ & \end{aligned}\)
no. of relation that are function will be \(\quad={ }^4 \mathrm{C}_1 \times{ }^3 \mathrm{C}_1 \times{ }^3 \mathrm{C}_1 \times{ }^3 \mathrm{C}_1 \times{ }^3 \mathrm{C}_1 \times{ }^4 \mathrm{C}_1\)
\(\begin{aligned} & =(4 \times 3 \times 3)^2=k^2 \\ & \text { i.e. } \mathrm{k}=36\end{aligned}\)

- Paragraph:
Light guidance in an optical fiber can be understood by considering a structure comprising of thin solid glass cylinder of refractive index \(n_{1}\) surrounded by a medium of lower refractive index \(n_{2}\). The light guidance in the structure takes place due to successive total internal reflections at the interface of the media \(n_{1}\) and \(n_{2}\) as shown in the figure. All rays with the angle of incidence \(i\) less than a particular value \(i_{m}\) are confined in the medium of refractive index \(n_{1}\). The numerical aperture (NA) of the structure is defined as \(\sin i_{m}\).
