The correct Answer is:
To determine the order and degree of the given differential equation: \[ \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^{3} - 2y\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}} = 0 \] we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the derivatives present in the equation In the given equation, we have: - The first derivative \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) - The second derivative \(\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}\) ### Step 2: Determine the order of the differential equation The order of a differential equation is defined as the highest order of the derivative present in the equation. In our case: - The highest derivative is \(\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}\), which is a second derivative. Thus, the order of the differential equation is **2**. ### Step 3: Determine the degree of the differential equation The degree of a differential equation is defined as the power of the highest order derivative after the equation has been made a polynomial in derivatives. In our equation, the highest derivative is \(\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}\) and it appears in the term \(-2y\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}\). The term \(\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^{3}\) has the first derivative raised to the power of 3. To find the degree: - The highest derivative \(\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}\) is not raised to any power other than 1 in the equation. - The term \(\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^{3}\) is raised to the power of 3. Since the degree is determined by the highest power of the highest order derivative, we see that the highest order derivative \(\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}\) is to the power of 1. Thus, the degree of the differential equation is **1**. ### Final Answer: - **Order**: 2 - **Degree**: 1 ---
