Question:

If the general solution of the differential equation $\left(\text{y}\right)^{'}=\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}+\phi\left(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\right)$ , for some function $\phi$ , is given by $yln\left|\right.\text{c}\text{x}\left|\right.=\text{x}$ , where $\text{c}$ is an arbitrary constant, then $\phi\left(2\right)$ is equal to $\left(\right)\text{here} , \, \left(\text{y}\right)^{'}=\frac{d y}{d x}\left(\text{y}\right)^{'}=\frac{d y}{d x}$

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

$\text{given} \text{:} \left(\text{y}\right)^{'} = \frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}} + \phi \left(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\right)$ As $\text{y ln} \left(\text{cx}\right) = \text{x} \, ? \, \left(\text{y}\right)^{'} \text{ln} \left(\text{cx}\right) + \text{y} \frac{1}{\text{cx}} \text{c} = 1$ $? \, \left(\text{y}\right)^{'} \left(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\right) + \frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}} = 1$ $? \, \, \, \frac{1 - \left(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\right)}{\left(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\right)} = \left(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\right) + \phi \left(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\right)$ Put $\frac{x}{y} = 2 \, ? \, \frac{1 - \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)}{\left(\frac{2}{1}\right)} = \left(\frac{1}{2}\right) + \phi \left(\frac{2}{1}\right)$ $? \, \, \, \phi \left(2\right) = - \frac{1}{4}$

Differential Equations

A differential equation is an equation that contains one or more functions with its derivatives. The derivatives of the function define the rate of change of a function at a point. It is mainly used in fields such as physics, engineering, biology and so on.

Orders of a Differential Equation

First Order Differential Equation

The first-order differential equation has a degree equal to 1. All the linear equations in the form of derivatives are in the first order. It has only the first derivative such as dy/dx, where x and y are the two variables and is represented as: dy/dx = f(x, y) = y’

Second-Order Differential Equation

The equation which includes second-order derivative is the second-order differential equation. It is represented as; d/dx(dy/dx) = d2y/dx2 = f”(x) = y”.

Types of Differential Equations

Differential equations can be divided into several types namely

  • Ordinary Differential Equations
  • Partial Differential Equations
  • Linear Differential Equations
  • Nonlinear differential equations
  • Homogeneous Differential Equations
  • Nonhomogeneous Differential Equations
