Differential Equation exercise 21.2 question 1

Answer:
$8 (\frac{dy}{d x})^{3} - 27 y = 0$
Hint:
Differentiating the given equation
Given:
$y^{2} = (x - c)^{3}$
Solution:
$y^{2} = (x - c)^{3}$
$2 y \frac{dy}{d x} = 3 (x - c)^{2}$
$\sqrt{\frac{2 y \frac{dy}{d x}}{3}} = (x - c)$
$y^{2} = (x - c)^{3} = (\frac{2 y \frac{dy}{d x}}{3})^{\frac{3}{2}}$
$y^{4} = (\frac{2 y \frac{dy}{d x}}{3})^{3}$
$y^{4} = \frac{8 y^{3}}{27} (\frac{dy}{d x})^{3}$
$y = \frac{8}{27} (\frac{dy}{d x})^{3}$
$8 (\frac{dy}{d x})^{3} - 27 y = 0$

Differential Equation exercise 21.2 question 2

Answer:

x \frac{dy}{d x} = y l o g y

Hint:
Differentiating given equation with respect to x

y = e^{m x}

[Applying log both sides]
Given:

y = e^{m x}

Solution:

\frac{dy}{d x} = m e^{m x}

\frac{dy}{d x} = m y

We have,

y = e^{m x}

l o g y = m x

m = \frac{l o g y}{x}

\frac{dy}{d x} = \frac{y l o g y}{x}

x \frac{dy}{d x} = y l o g y

Hence,

x \frac{dy}{d x} = y l o g y

is the differential equation corresponding to

The required differential equation is

x [y \frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}} + {(\frac{d y}{d x})}^{2}] = y \frac{d y}{d x}

Hint:
This is the equation of hyperbola

\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}} - \frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1

Given:

\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}} - \frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1

Solution:
The equation of family of curves is

\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}} - \frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1 \dots (i)

Where a and b are parameter
Differentiating equation (i) with respect to x, we get

\frac{2 x}{a^{2}} - \frac{2 y}{b^{2}} \frac{d y}{d x} = 0 \dots (i i)

Differentiating equation (ii) with respect to x, we get

\begin{aligned} \frac{2}{a^{2}} - \frac{2}{b^{2}} {(\frac{d y}{d x})}^{2} - \frac{2 y}{b^{2}} (\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}) = 0 \\ \frac{2}{a^{2}} = \frac{2}{b^{2}} [y (\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}) + {(\frac{d y}{d x})}^{2}] \\ \frac{b^{2}}{a^{2}} = [y (\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}) + {(\frac{d y}{d x})}^{2}] \dots (i i i) \end{aligned}

Now, from (ii), we get

\begin{aligned} \frac{2 x}{a^{2}} = \frac{2 y}{b^{2}} \frac{d y}{d x} \\ \frac{b^{2}}{a^{2}} = \frac{y}{x} \frac{d y}{d x} \dots (i v) \end{aligned}

Solution:
Equation of required ellipse is

\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}} - \frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1 \dots (i)

Where a and b are arbitrary constants
Differentiating equation (i) with respect to x, we get

\begin{aligned} \frac{2 x}{a^{2}} - \frac{2 y}{b^{2}} \frac{d y}{d x} = 0 \\ \frac{x}{a^{2}} - \frac{y}{b^{2}} \frac{d y}{d x} = 0 \dots (i i) \end{aligned}

Hint:
The equation belongs to the family of a circle

(x - b)^{2} + (y - k)^{2} = r^{2}

Given:
The family of circles in the second quadrant and touching the co-ordinate axes
Solution:
Let c denotes the family of circles in the second quadrant and touching the coordinate axes and let(-a,a) be coordinate of the centre of any member of this circle
Now, the equation representing this family of circle is

\begin{aligned} (x + a)^{2} + (y - a)^{2} = a^{2} \dots (i) \\ x^{2} + y^{2} + 2 a x - 2 a y + a^{2} = 0 \dots (i i) \end{aligned}

Differentiating (ii) with respect to x, we get

\begin{aligned} (x + y)^{2} (\frac{d y}{d x}) + (x + y)^{2} = {[(x + y)^{2} (\frac{d y}{d x})]}^{2} \end{aligned}

[(x + y)^{2} + 1] {(\frac{d y}{d x})}^{2} = {(x + y \frac{d y}{d x})}^{2}

The required differential equation is

[(x + y)^{2} + 1] {(\frac{d y}{d x})}^{2} = {(x + y \frac{d y}{d x})}^{2}

Differentiating with respect to x, we get

\begin{aligned} y_{1} = e^{2 x} (0 + b) + (a + b x) e^{2 x} .2 \\ y_{1} = e^{2 x} b + (a + b x) e^{2 x} .2 \dots (i i) \end{aligned}

Putting (i) in (ii)

\begin{aligned} y_{1} = b e^{2 x} + 2 y \\ y_{1} = 2 y = b e^{2 x} \dots (i i i) \end{aligned}

Again, Differentiating with respect to x, we get
