    The locus of the centre of a circle of radius 2 which rolls on the outside of the circle \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+3x-6y-9=0\]is

    A)  \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+3x-6y+5=0\]

    B)  \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+3x-6y-31=0\]

    C)  \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+3x-6y+\frac{29}{4}=0\]

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The   centre   and   radius   of   circle \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+3x-6y-9=0\]are \[{{C}_{1}}\left( -\frac{3}{2},3 \right)\] and \[{{r}_{1}}=\frac{9}{2}\] Let the  centre and radius of required circle are \[{{C}_{2}}(g,f)\]and \[{{r}_{2}}=2\]. Since, the required circle is rolled outside the given circle. \[\therefore \] \[{{C}_{1}}\,\,{{C}_{2}}={{r}_{1}}+{{r}_{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\sqrt{{{\left( g+\frac{3}{2} \right)}^{2}}+{{(f-3)}^{2}}}=2+\frac{9}{2}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{g}^{2}}+\frac{9}{4}+3g+{{f}^{2}}+9-6f=31\] Hence, locus of the centre is \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+3x-6y-31=0\]
