From the differential equation of the family of circles touching the y-axis at the origin.
From the differential equation of the family of circles touching the y-axis at the origin.
Solution and Explanation
The Centre of the circle touching the y-axis at origin lies on the x-axis.
Let (a,0) be the Centre of the circle.
Since, it touches the y-axis at origin, its radius is a.
Now, the equation of the circle with Centre (a,0)and radius a is
\((x-a)^2+y^2=a^2\).
\(\Rightarrow x^2+y^2=2ax\)...(1)
Differentiating equation (1)with respect to x, we get:
2x+2yy'=2\(a\)
\(\Rightarrow\) x+yy'= \(a\)
Now, on substituting the value of a in equation(1),we get:
x2+y2=2(x+yy')x
\(\Rightarrow\) x2+y2=2x2+2xyy'
\(\Rightarrow\) 2xyy'+x2=y2
This is the required differential equation.

Questions Asked in CBSE CLASS XII exam
Read the given passage carefully and answer the questions that follow :
In agriculturally important countries, agro products are exchanged for manufactured goods, whereas industrialised nations export machinery and finished products and import food grains and other raw materials. Foreign investment can boost trade in developing countries which lack in capital required for the development of mining, oil drilling, heavy engineering, lumbering and plantation agriculture. By developing such capital intensive industries in developing countries, the industrial nations ensure import of food stuffs, minerals and create markets for their finished products. This entire cycle steps up the volume of trade between nations.

General Solutions to Differential Equations
A relation between involved variables, which satisfy the given differential equation is called its solution. The solution which contains as many arbitrary constants as the order of the differential equation is called the general solution and the solution free from arbitrary constants is called particular solution.
