## Differential Equations Class 12 Maths MCQs Pdf

1. Order of differential equation correspon- ding to family of curves y = Ae2x + Be2x is ______ .

Explaination: 2, as there are two arbitrary constants and we have to differentiate twice.

2. The order of the differential equation corresponding to the family of curves y = c(x – c)², c is constant is ______ .

Explaination: One, as there is one arbitrary constant.

3. The degree of differential equation

is not defined. State true or false.

Explaination: Three, as equation cannot be represented as polynomial of derivatives.

4. If p and q are the degree and order of the differential equation

then the value of 2p – 3q is
(a) 7
(b) -7
(c) 3
(d) -3

Explaination:
(b), as degree p = 1 and order q = 3
∴ 2p – 3q = 2 – 9 = -7

5. The degree of the differential equation

(a) 1
(b) 2
(c) 3
(d) 4

Explaination:
(c), as differential equation is

Exponent of highest order derivative is 3.

6. The degree of the differential equation

(a) 1
(b) 2
(c) 3
(d) not defined

Explaination:
(d), as equation cannot be represented as a polynomial of derivatives.

7. The order of the differential equation of all the circles of given radius 4 is
(a) 1
(b)2
(c) 3
(d) 4

Explaination:
(b), as centre is arbitrary (h, k), two arbitrary constants so we have to differentiate twice to eliminate h, k
∴ order is 2.

8. Degree of the differential equation

is not defined. State true or false.

Explaination:
False, as equation can be written as

Further it can be written as a polynomial of derivatives. 9.

9. Write the degree of the differential equation

Explaination: Degree 1

10. Write the degree of the differential equation

Explaination: Degree 3.

11. Find the value of m and n, where m and n are order and degree of differential equation

Explaination:

Order of differential equation (m) = 3
Degree of differential equation (n) = 2

12. Write the order and degree of the differential equation $$\frac{d y}{d x}+\sin \left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)$$ = 0. [HOTS]

Explaination:
Highest order derivative is $$\frac{dy}{dx}$$. Hence, order of differential equation is 1. Equation cannot be written as a polynomial’ in derivatives. Hence, degree is not defined.

13. The differential equation of the family of lines passing through ongrn is
(a) y = mx
(b) $$\frac{dy}{dx}$$ = m
(c) x dy – y dx = 0
(d) $$\frac{dy}{dx}$$ = 0

Explaination:
(c), as general equation of line through origin is
y = mx
⇒ $$\frac{dy}{dx}$$ = m
Substituting in (i), we get dy
y = $$\frac{dy}{dx}$$.x
⇒ x dy – y dx = 0

14. Find the differential equation representing the family of curves y = aebx + 5, where a and b are arbitrary constants. [CBSE 2018]

Explaination:
Consider y = aebx + 5
.On differentiating both sides, w.r.t, x
$$\frac{dy}{dx}$$ = abebx + 5 = by …..(i)
Again differentiating w.r.t. x, we get
$$\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}=b \cdot \frac{d y}{d x}$$ …..(ii)
From (i) and (ii), eliminating b, we get
$$y \cdot \frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}=\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^{2}$$ as required equation.

15. Form the differential equation representing the family of parabolas having vertex at origin and axis along positive direction of the x-axis. [NCERT; DoE]

Explaination:
General equation of parabola is y² = 4ax …..(i)
Differentiating, we get 2yy’ = 4a
⇒ yy’ = 2a.
Substituting in (i), we gety2 = 2xyy’.

16. Form the differential equation of the family of parabolas having vertex at the origin and axis along positive y-axis. [Delhi 2011]

Explaination:
x² = 4 ay
⇒ 2x = 4 ay’
⇒ $$\frac{x^{2}}{2 x}=\frac{4 a y}{4 a y^{\prime}}$$
⇒ xy’ – 2y = 0 is the required equation.

17. General solution of the differential equation log$$\frac{dy}{dx}$$ = 2x +y is _______ .

Explaination:

18. Solve the differential equation $$\frac{dy}{dx}$$ = ex – y + x3e-y.

Explaination:

19. Find the particular solution of the differential equation $$\frac{dy}{dx}$$ =y tanx, given that y= 1 when x = 0.

Explaination:
∫ $$\frac{dy}{y}$$ = ∫tan x dx
⇒ log |y| = log|sec x| + log C
⇒ y = C sec x ….(i)
Given y = 1, x = 0
⇒ 1 = C sec 0
⇒ C = 1
∴ solution is y = sec x [from (i)]

20. Find the general solution of the differential equation $$\frac{dy}{dx}$$ = $$\frac{x+1}{2-y}$$, (y ≠ 2). [NCERT]
