NCERT Class 12 Maths · Chapter 5 Continuity And Differentiability · Exercise 5.7 Question 10
Find the second derivative of \(\sin{\left(\log{\left(x \right)} \right)}\) with respect to x; for x>0.
💡 Concept Hints
Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.
✅ Step-by-Step Solution
Final Answer: \(- \frac{\sin{\left(\log{\left(x \right)} \right)} + \cos{\left(\log{\left(x \right)} \right)}}{x^{2}}\)
Work for x>0.
Differentiate the outer function and multiply by the inner derivative: \(\frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(\log{\left(x \right)} \right)}\) = \(\frac{\cos{\left(\log{\left(x \right)} \right)}}{x}\).
Differentiate the first derivative \(\frac{\cos{\left(\log{\left(x \right)} \right)}}{x}\) again.
Product rule: differentiate each variable factor once, keeping the other factors unchanged. Here \(\frac{d}{d x} \frac{\cos{\left(\log{\left(x \right)} \right)}}{x}\) = \(- \frac{\sin{\left(\log{\left(x \right)} \right)}}{x^{2}} - \frac{\cos{\left(\log{\left(x \right)} \right)}}{x^{2}}\).
