Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Let's understand Order and Degree first:

Order: The highest derivative in the equation

Degree: The power of the highest derivative when the equation is a polynomial in derivatives. If derivatives appear inside log, exponential, or other transcendental functions, degree is not defined.


(A) Degree of:

d4ydx4+2log⁡e(d3ydx3)=0\frac{d^4y}{dx^4} + 2\log_e\left(\frac{d^3y}{dx^3}\right) = 0

The derivative d3ydx3\frac{d^3y}{dx^3} appears inside a logarithm.

When derivatives are inside log, sin, cos, or exponential functions, the degree is not defined.

(A) matches with (III) not defined


(B) Order of:

e(dydx)3+3y(d2ydx2)3=0e^{\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^3} + 3y\left(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\right)^3 = 0

Identify the highest derivative:

dydx\frac{dy}{dx} has order 11

d2ydx2\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} has order 22

The highest derivative is d2ydx2\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}

Order =2= 2

(B) matches with (IV) 2


(C) Degree of:

d4ydx4+(dydx)2=0\frac{d^4y}{dx^4} + \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2 = 0

This is a polynomial in derivatives (no log or exponential of derivatives).

The highest order derivative is d4ydx4\frac{d^4y}{dx^4}

The power of d4ydx4\frac{d^4y}{dx^4} is 11

Degree =1= 1

(C) matches with (I) 1


(D) Order of:

2d4ydx4+(d2ydx2)5=02\frac{d^4y}{dx^4} + \left(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\right)^5 = 0

Identify the highest derivative:

d4ydx4\frac{d^4y}{dx^4} has order 44

d2ydx2\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} has order 22

The highest derivative is d4ydx4\frac{d^4y}{dx^4}

Order =4= 4

(D) matches with (II) 4


Final Matching:

(A) →\rightarrow (III)

(B) →\rightarrow (IV)

(C) →\rightarrow (I)

(D) →\rightarrow (II)

Correct Answer: A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
