If $$a \in R$$ and the equation $$ - 3{\left( {x - \left[ x \right]} \right)^2} + 2\left( {x - \left[ x \right]} \right) + {a^2} = 0$$ (where [$$x$$] denotes the greater integer $$ \le x$$) has no integral solution, then all possible values of a lie in the interval :

Let $$f_k\left( x \right) = {1 \over k}\left( {{{\sin }^k}x + {{\cos }^k}x} \right)$$ where $$x \in R$$ and $$k \ge \,1.$$
Then $${f_4}\left( x \right) - {f_6}\left( x \right)\,\,$$ equals :

The angle between the lines whose direction cosines satisfy the equations $$l+m+n=0$$ and $${l^2} = {m^2} + {n^2}$$ is :

The radiation corresponding to $$3 \to 2$$ transition of hydrogen atom falls on a metal surface to produce photoelectrons. These electrons are made to enter a magnetic field $$3 \times {10^{ - 4}}\,T.$$ If the radius of the larger circular path followed by these electrons is $$10.0$$ $$mm$$, the work function of the metal is close to:
