### Plus Two Maths Differential Equations Three Mark Questions and Answers

Question 1.
y = e2x(a + bx), a and b are arbitrary constants.
y = e2x(a + bx) ____(1)
Differentiating with respect to x,
$$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = e2xb + (a + bx)2e2x

Differentiating (2) with respect to x,

Question 2.
y = ex(acosx + 6sinx), a and b are arbitrary constants.
y = ex(acosx + 6sinx) ___(1)
Differentiating with respect to x,
$$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = ex(-asinx + bcosx) + ex(acosx + bsinx) $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = ex(-asin x + b cos x) + y
$$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ – y = ex(-a sin x + b cos x) ____(2)

Question 5.
Find the equation of a curve passing through the point (0, -2) given that at any point (x, y) on the curve, the product of the slope of its tangent and y coordinate of the point is equal to the x coordinate of the point.
y$$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = x ⇒ ydy = xdx
Integrating on both sides,
∫ydy = ∫xdx + c
⇒ $$\frac{y^{2}}{2}=\frac{x^{2}}{2}$$ + c ____(1)
Since it passes through (0, -2),

Question 6.

Question 7.
For the DE xy $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = (x + 2)(y + 2), find the solution curve passing through the point(1,- 1).
xy $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = (x + 2)(y + 2)
⇒ $$\frac{y}{y+2} d x=\frac{x+2}{x} d x$$
Integrating on both sides,

⇒ y – 2 log|y + 2| = x + 2log|x| + c ____(1)
Since it passes through (1, -1),
⇒ -1 – 2log|-1 + 2| = 1 + 2log|l| + c
⇒ -2 = c
(1) ⇒ y – 2log|y + 2| = x + 2log|x| – 2.

Question 8.

This is a variable type
∴∫$$\frac{d y}{y}$$ = ∫tan 2xdx ⇒ log y = $$\frac{1}{2}$$ log|sec 2x| + c
Given y(0) = 2 ⇒ log 2 = $$\frac{1}{2}$$ log|sec 0| + c ⇒ c = log 2
log y = $$\frac{1}{2}$$ log|sec 2x| + log 2 ⇒

Question 2.

1. Find the Differential equation satisfying the family of curves y = ae3x + be-2x, a and b are arbitrary constants. (3)
2. Hence write the degree and order of the DE. (1)

1. y = ae3x + be-2x ____(1)
Differentiating with respect to x,
$$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = ae3x × 3 + be-2x × -2 ____(2)
Differentiating (2) with respect to x,
⇒ $$\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}$$ = 9ae3x + 4be-2x ____(3)
Now, (3) + 2 × (2) ⇒ $$\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}+2 \frac{d y}{d x}=15 a e^{3 x}$$

Using (4), (5) in (1), we have,

2. Order: 2; degree: 1.

Question 3.
Consider the equation of all circles which pass through the origin and whose centres are on the x-axis.

1. Define the general equation of the circle.(1)
2. Find the DE corresponding to the above equation. (3)

1. The general equation of the circle, passing through the origin and whose centers lies on x-axis can be taken as (x – h)2 + y2 = h2 where h being an arbitrary constant.

2. Simplifying (x – h)2 + y2 = h2 we get,
x2 – 2hx + h2 + y2 = h2 ⇒ x2 – 2hx + h2 = 0 _____(1)
Differentiating we get,
2x + 2y $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ – 2h = 0 ⇒ h = x + y $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$
Substituting in (1) we can eliminate h

Question 4.
Find a particular solution satisfying the given condition. (x3 + x2 + x +1)$$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = 2x2 + x, y = 1, when x = 0.

1. Degree = 1

2. We have, $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = 2xy ⇒ $$\frac{d y}{y}$$ = 2xdx, which is of the form Mdx = Ndy.

3. Solution is ∫$$\frac{d y}{y}$$ = 2∫xdx ⇒ log|y| = x2 + c
Given y(0) = 1 ⇒ log|1| = 0 + c ⇒ c = 0
⇒ log|y| = x2 ⇒ y = ex2.

$$\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{y^{2}-x^{2}}{2 x y}$$, this is a Homogeneous DE.
Therefore, put y = vx and $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = v + x$$\frac{d v}{d x}$$ to convert it into variable separable form.
The DE becomes,

Therefore integrating we get,

Question 7.
Solve the linear differential equation $$x \frac{d y}{d x}-y=(x-1) e^{x}$$.

(ii) From the DE of the family of circles touching the x-axis at origin. (3)
(i) (c) a straight line whose centre is origin.

(ii) Let (0, a) be the centre of the circle. Therefore the equation of the circle is
x2 + (y – a)2 = a2
⇒ x2 + y2 = 2ay

Differentiating with respect to x,

Question 9.
Solve the DE x2$$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = x2 – 2y2 + xy.

where P = $$\frac{1}{x}$$, Q = ex
IF = e∫Pdx = e∫$$\frac{1}{x}$$dx = elogx = x

3. Solution is y.IF = ∫ex. IFdx

Question 1.
Consider the DE $$\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{y^{3}+3 x^{2} y}{x^{3}+3 x y^{2}}$$

1. Identify the DE ? Give reason. (1)
2. Explain the method of solving the DE. (1)
3. Solve the DE. (4)

1. Given DE is a Homogeneous DE. Since y3 + 3x2y and x3 + 3xy2 are Homogeneous functions of same degree (deg = 3).

2. By giving a substitution y = v x and $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ = v + x$$\frac{d y}{d x}$$
we can convert the DE into variable separable.

3. Now we have, $$\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{y^{3}+3 x^{2} y}{x^{3}+3 x y^{2}}$$

∴ Integrating we get,
$$\int \frac{1+3 v^{2}}{2 v\left(1-v^{2}\right)} d v=\int \frac{d x}{x}$$

$$\frac{1}{2}$$ log v – log(1 – v2) = log x + log c

1. Find degree and order of DE . (1)
2. Solve the D.E. (4)
3. Find the particular solution when x = 1, y = 1. (1)

1. Degree: 1, Order: 1.

2. The given D.E is first order linear DE of the form
$$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ + Py = Q. Comparing we get, P = $$\frac{1}{x}$$, Q = x2
∴ ∫Pdx = ∫$$\frac{1}{x}$$dx = logx
Integrating factor (I.F) = e∫Pdx = elogx = x
y.x = ∫x2.xdx + c = ∫x3 dx + c
⇒ y.x = $$\frac{x^{4}}{4}$$ + c ___(1)

3. Given, y = 1 when x = 1, then (1)
⇒ 1 × 1 = $$\frac{1}{4}$$ + c ⇒ c = $$\frac{3}{4}$$
Therefore particular solution is
y.x = $$\frac{x^{4}}{4}$$ + $$\frac{3}{4}$$ ⇒ 4xy = x3 + 3.

2. Given, $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ + y = sin x is of the form
$$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ + Py = Q ⇒ P = 1, Q = sinx
Integrating factor = e∫Pdx = e∫1dx = ex

3. Therefore solution is
y.IF = ∫Q.IFdx + c ⇒ yex = ∫ex sinxdx + c ____(1)
∫sinx.exdx = ex sinx – ∫cosx.exdx
= ex sin x – cosx.ex – ∫sinx.ex dx
⇒ 2∫ex sin xdx = ex(sin x – cos x)
⇒ ∫ex sinxdx = $$\frac{e^{x}}{2}$$(sinx – cosx)
(1) ⇒ yex = $$\frac{e^{x}}{2}$$(sinx – cosx) + c.

Here, Degree = 1, Order = 1.

2. The given DE is of the form $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ + Py = Q
Where,

Splitting it into partial fractions we get,

Put x = 1, ⇒ 6 = 2B ⇒ B = 3,
put x = -1, ⇒ 2 = -2A ⇒ A = -1

3. Solution is y × IF = ∫Q × IFdx + c

(i) (d) Not defined.

(ii) $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ + 2y tanx = sinx
Then, P = 2tanx, Q = sinx
IF = e∫Pdx = e∫2tanxdx = e2log sec x = sec2 x Solution is; y × IF = ∫Q(IF)dx + c
⇒ ysec2 x = ∫sinx sec2 xdx + c
⇒ ysec2 x = ∫tanx secx dx + c
⇒ ysec2x = secx + c
Here; y = 0, x = $$\frac{\pi}{3}$$
⇒ 0 × sec2 $$\frac{\pi}{3}$$ = sec$$\frac{\pi}{3}$$ + c ⇒ c = -2
⇒ ysec2 x = secx – 2.

Question 6.
