    \[\int_{0}^{1}{\frac{dx}{\sqrt{1+x}-\sqrt{x}}=}\]                                               [SCRA 1986]

    A)                 \[\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}\]   

    B)                 \[\frac{4\sqrt{2}}{3}\]

    C)                 \[\frac{8\sqrt{2}}{3}\]   

    D)                 None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               \[I=\int_{0}^{1}{\frac{dx}{\sqrt{1+x}-\sqrt{x}}=\int_{0}^{1}{\frac{(\sqrt{1+x}+\sqrt{x})dx}{(\sqrt{1+x}-\sqrt{x})(\sqrt{1+x}+\sqrt{x})}}}\]                                 \[=\int_{0}^{1}{\frac{(\sqrt{1+x}+\sqrt{x})}{1+x-x}}dx=\int_{0}^{1}{\sqrt{1+x\,}dx}+\int_{0}^{1}{\sqrt{x}}dx=\frac{4\sqrt{2}}{3}\].
