MCQ
The degree of the differntial equation $\Big(\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}\Big)^{2}=\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)=\text{y}^{3}$ is:
  • A
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • $2$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $4$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$2$
We have,
$\Big(\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}\Big)^{2}=\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)=\text{y}^{3}$
The highest order derivative is $\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}$ and its power is 2.
Hence, the degree is 2.
