Q6. Form the differential equation of the family of circles touching the y-axis at the origin.

Answer. The centre of the circle touching the y-axis at origin lies on the x-axis. Let (a, 0) be the centre of the circle. Since it touches the y-axis at origin, its radius is a. Now, the equation of the circle with centre (a, 0) and radius (a) is $\begin{array}{c}(x-a{)}^2+y^2=a^2\\ \Rightarrow x^2+y^2=2ax...\left(i\right)\end{array}$  $\begin{array}{c}\text{Differentiating equation}\left(i\right)\text{with respect to}x,\text{we get:}\\ 2x+2y{y}^{\prime }=2a\\ \Rightarrow x+y{y}^{\prime }=a\\ \text{Now, on substituting the value of a in equation}\left(i\right),\text{we get:}\\ x^2+y^2=2(x+y{y}^{\prime })x\\ \Rightarrow x^2+y^2=2x^2+2xy{y}^{\prime }\\ \Rightarrow 2xy{y}^{\prime }+x^2=y^2\end{array}$ This is the required differential equation.

Q7. Form the differential equation of the family of parabolas having vertex at origin and axis along positive y-axis.

Answer. $\begin{array}{c}\text{The equation of the parabola having the vertex at origin and the axis along the positive}\\ y\text{-axis is:}\\ x^2=4ay...\left(i\right)\end{array}$  $\begin{array}{c}\text{Differentiating equation}\left(i\right)\text{with respect to}x,\text{we get:}\\ 2x=4a{y}^{\prime }...\left(ii\right)\\ \text{Dividing equation}\left(ii\right)\text{by equation}\left(i\right),\text{we get:}\\ \frac{2x}{x^2}=\frac{4a{y}^{\prime }}{4ay}\\ \Rightarrow \frac{2}{x}=\frac{y^{\prime }}{y}\\ \Rightarrow x{y}^{\prime }=2y\\ \Rightarrow x{y}^{\prime }-2y=0\end{array}$ This is the required differential equation.

Q10. Form the differential equation of the family of circles having centre on y-axis and radius 3 units.

Answer. Let the centre of the circle on y-axis be (0, b). The differential equation of the family of circles with centre at (0, b) and radius 3 is as follows: $\begin{array}{c}{x}^2+(y-b{)}^2=3^2\\ \Rightarrow x^2+(y-b{)}^2=9...\left(i\right)\end{array}$  $\begin{array}{c}\text{Differentiating equation}\left(i\right)\text{with respect to}x,\text{we get:}\\ 2x+2(y-b)\cdot y^{\prime }=0\\ \Rightarrow (y-b)\cdot y^{\prime }=-x\\ \Rightarrow y-b=\frac{-x}{y^{\prime }}\\ \text{Substituting the value of}(y-b)\text{in equation}\left(i\right),\text{we get:}\end{array}$ $\begin{array}{c}{x}^2+{\left(\frac{-x}{y^{\prime }}\right)}^2=9\\ \Rightarrow x^2[1+\frac{1}{{\left(y^{\prime }\right)}^2}]=9\\ \Rightarrow x^2({\left(y^{\prime }\right)}^2+1)=9{\left(y^{\prime }\right)}^2\\ \Rightarrow (x^2-9){\left(y^{\prime }\right)}^2+x^2=0\\ \text{This is the required differential equation.}\end{array}$

Q11. $\begin{array}{c}\text{Which of the following differential equations has}\\ y=c_1{e}^x+c_2{e}^{-x}\text{as the general solution?}\end{array}$ $\begin{array}{c}\left(A\right)\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}+y=0\\ \left(B\right)\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}-y=0\end{array}$ $\begin{array}{c}\left(iii\right)\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}+1=0\\ \left(iv\right)\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}-1=0\end{array}$

Answer. $\begin{array}{c}\text{The given equation is:}\\ y=c_1{e}^x+c_2{e}^{-x}...\left(i\right)\\ \text{Differentiating with respect to}x,\text{we get:}\\ \frac{dy}{dx}=c_1{e}^x-c_2{e}^{-x}\\ \text{Again, differentiating with respect to}x,\text{we get:}\end{array}$ $\begin{array}{c}\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}=c_1{e}^x+c_2{e}^{-x}\\ \Rightarrow \frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}=y\\ \Rightarrow \frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}-y=0\\ \text{This is the required differential equation of the given equation of curve.}\\ \text{Hence, the correct answer is B.}\end{array}$

Q12. $\begin{array}{c}\text{Which of the following differential equation has}y=x\text{as one}\\ \text{of its particular solution?}\end{array}$ $\begin{array}{c}\left(A\right)\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}-x^2\frac{dy}{dx}+xy=x\\ \left(B\right)\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}+x\frac{dy}{dx}+xy=x\\ \left(C\right)\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}-x^2\frac{dy}{dx}+xy=0\\ \left(D\right)\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}+x\frac{dy}{dx}+xy=0\end{array}$

Answer. The given equation of curve is y = x. Differentiating with respect to x, we get: $\frac{dy}{dx}=1\left(i\right)$ Again, differentiating with respect to x, we get: $\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}=0\left(ii\right)$ Now, on substituting the values of y, $\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2},\text{and}\frac{dy}{dx}$ from equation (i) and (ii) in each of the given alternatives, we find that only the differential equation given in alternative C is correct. $\begin{array}{cc}\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}-x^2\frac{dy}{dx}+xy& =0-x^2\cdot 1+x\cdot x\\ & =-x^2+x^2\\ & =0\end{array}$ Hence, the correct answer is C.
