The correct answer is: p>1
Given, fx=xpcos1x, x0               0,   x=0

Since, f(x) is differentiable at x=0, therefore it is continuous at x=0

 limx0 fx=f0=0

 limx0  xpcos1x=0       p>0

As fx is differentiable at x=0

   limx0   fx-f(0)x-0 exists finitely

 limx0  xpcos1x-0x exists finitely

limx0  xp-1cos1x exists finitely

        p-1>0          p>1
