The differential equation $y=xp+\sqrt{x^2p^3+4}$ where $p=\frac{dy}{dx} $ is : (A) of order 1 (B) of degree 1 (C) of order 2 (D) of degree 3 Choose the correct answer from the options given below : |
(A) and (B) Only (A) and (D) Only (B) and (C) Only (C) and (D) Only |
(A) and (D) Only |
$y = xp + \sqrt{x^2p^3 + 4}, \quad p=\frac{dy}{dx}.$ $\text{Highest order derivative present is } \frac{dy}{dx}.$ $\text{Order} = 1.$ $y-xp=\sqrt{x^2p^3+4}.$ $(y-xp)^2 = x^2p^3+4.$ $\text{This is a polynomial in }p \text{ with highest power } p^3.$ $\text{Degree} = 3.$ $\text{Correct options: (A) order 1 and (D) degree 3.}$ |
