MCQ
The degree of the differential equation $\big(\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}\big)^{3}+\big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\big)^{2}+\sin\big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\big)+1=0$ is:
  • A
    $3$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $1$
  • Not defined.

Answer

Correct option: D.
Not defined.
We have,
$\big(\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}\big)^{3}+\big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\big)^{2}+\sin\big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\big)+1=0$
The highest order derivative in this equation is $\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{d}^{2}\text{x}}.$
But the equation cannot be as a polynomial in differential coeffcient.
Hence, the degree is not defined.
