MCQ
The differential equation of all parabolas whose axes are parallel to $y$-axis is
  • $\frac{{{d^3}y}}{{d{x^3}}} = 0$
  • B
    $\frac{{{d^2}x}}{{d{y^2}}} = c$
  • C
    $\frac{{{d^3}y}}{{d{x^3}}} + \frac{{{d^2}x}}{{d{y^2}}} = 0$
  • D
    $\frac{{{d^2}y}}{{d{x^2}}} + 2\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} = c$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{{{d^3}y}}{{d{x^3}}} = 0$
a
(a) The equation of a member of the family of parabolas having axis parallel to $y$-axis is $y = A{x^2} + Bx + C .....(i)$

where $A, B, C$ are arbitrary constants.

Differentiating $(i)$ $ w.r.t$. $x$, we get $\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} = 2Ax + B .....(ii)$

Which on differentiating $w.r.t.$ $x$ gives$\frac{{{d^2}y}}{{d{x^2}}} = 2A .....(iii)$

Differentiating $w.r.t.$ $x$ again, we get $\frac{{{d^3}y}}{{d{x^3}}} = 0$.
