Worked practice questions

The **order** of a differential equation is:

  1. The highest power of the dependent variable
  2. The highest-order derivative present in the equation
  3. The number of arbitrary constants in the solution
  4. Always equal to its degree
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. The highest-order derivative present in the equation

Order = highest order of derivative appearing. e.g. $d^2y/dx^2 + 3(dy/dx) + y = 0$ has order 2 (because of $d^2y/dx^2$). The order is always a positive integer.

Complete the statement
The order of a differential equation is the order of its {0} derivative. Its degree is defined only when the equation is a {1} equation in its derivatives, and it is then the highest {2} of the highest order derivative.
The two are defined differently, and only one of them always exists. Source: syllabus Maths Part II, Ch 9 Differential Equations.

Questions
  1. Statement is true
    Yes
    Statement
    The order is the order of the highest order derivative present.
  2. Statement is true
    No
    Statement
    Every differential equation has a degree.
  3. Statement is true
    Yes
    Statement
    Degree is defined only when the equation is polynomial in its derivatives.
  4. Statement is true
    Yes
    Statement
    A degree, when defined, is a positive integer.
  5. Statement is true
    No
    Statement
    Order and degree always have the same value.
The caveat on degree is the point of this round. Source: syllabus Maths Part II, Ch 9 Differential Equations.
