The differential equation representing the family of curves $y^2=2 c(x+\sqrt{c})$, where c is a positive parameter, is of |
order 1 and degree 3 order 2 and degree 3 order 1 degree 2 none of these |
order 1 and degree 3 |
We have, $y^2=2 c(x+\sqrt{c})$ .......(i) $\Rightarrow 2 y y_1=2 c$ $\Rightarrow y y_1=c$ .......(ii) Eliminating c from (i) and (ii), we get $y^2=2 y y_1\left(x+\sqrt{y y_1}\right)$ $\Rightarrow y-2 x y_1=\left(\sqrt{y} y_1\right)^{3 / 2} \Rightarrow\left(y-2 x y_1\right)^2=\left(y y_1\right)^3$ Clearly, it is a differential equation of order one and degree 3. |
