Question:

The differential equation of all conics with the coordinate axes, is of order

Options:

1

2

3

4

Correct Answer:

2

Explanation:

The general equation of all conics with axes as coordinate axes is ax2 + by2 = 1.

Since it has two arbitrary constants, the differential equation is of order 2.

Hence (2) is the correct answer.
