Question 511 Mark
Find the sum of the order and degree of the differential equation $\text{y}=\text{x}\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^{3}+\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}.$
Answer
The order is 2 as the highest derivative is 2.
The degree is 1 as the highest derivative is of order 1.
Hence, the sum of the order and dergree of the differential equation $\text{y}=\text{x}\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^{3}+\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}$ is 2 + 1 = 3.

Question 541 Mark
Write the order of the differential equation of the famliy of circles of radius r.
Answer
Given, the equation of famliy of circle,
$(\text{x}-\text{a}^{2})+(\text{y}-\text{b})^{2}=\text{r}^{2}\ ...(\text{i})$
Since, given equation have two arbiteary constant, so we differential the above equation two times wrt.x.
Differential equation (i) wrt.x. we get
$2(\text{x}-\text{a})+2(\text{y}-\text{b})\frac{\text{}dy}{\text{dx}}=\text{r}^{2}=0$
$\Rightarrow (\text{x}-\text{a})+(\text{y}-\text{b})\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=0\ ...(\text{ii})$
Differential equation (ii) wrt.x. we get,
$1+(\text{y}-\text{b})\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}+\big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\big)=0$
$\Rightarrow(\text{y}-\text{b})=\frac{1+\big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^{2}}{\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}}\ ...(\text{iii})$
Substitite value of (y - b) in equation (ii), we have,
$(\text{x}-\text{a})+\Bigg[\frac{1+\big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^{2}}{\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}}\Bigg]\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=0$
$(\text{x}+\text{a})+\frac{\Big[ 1+\big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^{2}\Big]\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}}{\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}}\ ...(\text{iv})$
Substitite value of (x - a) (y - b) in equation (ii), we have,
$\Bigg[\frac{1+\big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^{2}}{\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}}\Bigg]\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\Bigg[\frac{1+\big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^{2}}{\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}}\Bigg]\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}} =\text{r}^{2}$
$\Rightarrow \Big[1+\big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\big)^{2}\Big] ^{3}=\text{r}^{2}\Big(\frac{\text{d}^{2}\text{y}}{\text{dx}^{2}}\Big)^{2}$
The order of the differential equation of the famliy of circle of redius r is 2.

Question 581 Mark
Write the differential equation representing the famliy of straight line y = Cx + 5, where C is an arbitrary constant.
Answer
We have,
$\text{y}=\text{Cx}+5\ ...(\text{i})$
$\Rightarrow \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{C}$
Substituting the value of C in (i),
$\text{y}=\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\times\text{x}+5$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}-\text{y}+5=0$
Hence, $\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}-\text{y}+5=0$ is the differential equation tha famliy of lines $\text{y}=\text{Cx}+5$ When C is an arbita.

Question 601 Mark
Write the differrntial equation representing famliy of curve y = mx, where m is arbitrary constant.
Answer
We have,
$\text{y}=\text{mx}\ ...(\text{i})$
Differentiating with respect to x,
$\Rightarrow \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{m}$
Substituting the value of $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{m}$ in equation (i),
$\text{y}=\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$
Hence, $\text{y}=\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}$ is the required differential equation.

Question 611 Mark
Determine the order and degree of the following differential equations. state also whether they are linear or non linear.
$\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^3-4\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2+7\text{y}=\sin\text{x}$
Answer
$\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^3-4\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2+7\text{y}=\sin\text{x}$
The order of a differential equation is the order of the highest order derivative appearing in the equation. The degree of a differential equation is the degree of the highest order derivative. Consider the given differential equation

$\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^3-4\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2+7\text{y}=\sin\text{x}$

In the above equation, the order of the highest order derivative is 1. So the differential equation is of order 1. In the above differential equation, the power of the highest order derivative is 3. Hence, it is a differential equation of degree 3. Since the degree of the above differential equation is 3, more than one, it is a non-linear differential equation.

Determine the order and degree of the following differential equations. state also whether they are linear or non linear.
$\Big(\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}\Big)^2+\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2=\text{x}\sin\Big(\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}}\Big)$
Answer
$\Big(\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}\Big)^2+\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2=\text{x}\sin\Big(\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}}\Big)$
In this differential equation, the order of the highest order derivative is 2.

Clearly, the R.H.S. of the differential equation cannot be expressed as a polynomial in $\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{dx}^2}$ So, its degree is not defined.

The order of the differential equation is 2 and its degree is not defined.

It is a non-linear differential equation, as one of its differential co-efficients, that is, $\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)$ has exponent 2, which is more than 1.
