Determine the order and degree (if defined) for the differential equation (d2y/dx2) +cos(dy/dx) =0 |
order= 2, degree= 2. order= 2, degree= 1. order=2, degree= not defined. None of these. |
order=2, degree= not defined. |
The highest order derivative present in the equation is d2y/dx2. Therefore its order is 2. The given differential equation is not a polynomial equation in its derivatives. Hence it's degree is not defined. |
