Match List-I with List-II

List-I (Differential Equation)List-II (Order and degree)
(A) (d2ydx2)2+edydx=0\left(\dfrac{d^2y}{dx^2}\right)^2 + e^{\frac{dy}{dx}} = 0(I) order = 2, degree = 1
(B) xyd2ydx2+x(dydx)2−ydydx=0xy\dfrac{d^2y}{dx^2} + x\left(\dfrac{dy}{dx}\right)^2 - y\dfrac{dy}{dx} = 0(II) order = 2, degree = not defined
(C) (d3ydx3)2+log⁡e(dydx)=4x\left(\dfrac{d^3y}{dx^3}\right)^2 + \log_e\left(\dfrac{dy}{dx}\right) = 4x(III) order = 3, degree = 2
(D) ddx(d2ydx2)+ydydx=(1+dydx)1/2\dfrac{d}{dx}\left(\dfrac{d^2y}{dx^2}\right) + y\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \left(1+\dfrac{dy}{dx}\right)^{1/2}(IV) order = 3, degree = not defined

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Degree exists only when the equation is polynomial in all derivatives.

(A) order 2, but ey′e^{y'} makes degree undefined. (B) order 2 and polynomial with y′′y'' appearing to power 1, so degree 1. (C) order 3 with log⁡e(y′)\log_e(y'), so degree undefined. (D) is y′′′+yy′=(1+y′)1/2y'''+yy'=(1+y')^{1/2}; squaring makes it polynomial of order 3 and degree 2.
