Let $A, B$ and $C$ be three points in a plane. The locus of a point $P$ moving such that $PA^2 + PB^2 = 2PC^2$ is a

Observe the statements given below :
Assertion $(A)$ : $f(x)=x e^{-x}$ has the maximum at $x=1$
Reason $(R)$ : $f^{\prime}(1)=0$ and $f^{\prime \prime}(1) < 0$
Which of the following is correct?

Let $l_1$ and $l_2$ be two lines intersecting at $P$. If $A_1, B_1, C_1$ are points on $l_1$,and $A_2, B_2, C_2, D_2, E_2$ are points on $l_2$,and if none of these coincides with $P$,then the number of triangles formed by these eight points is:

At two points $P$ and $Q$ on the screen in Young's double-slit experiment,waves from slits $S_1$ and $S_2$ have a path difference of $0$ and $\frac{\lambda}{4}$ respectively. The ratio of intensities at $P$ and $Q$ will be

In the study of a transistor as an amplifier,if $\alpha = \frac{I_C}{I_E}$ and $\beta = \frac{I_C}{I_B}$,where $I_C, I_B$,and $I_E$ are the collector,base,and emitter currents,respectively,then:
