    Differential Equations Past Board Exam

    • Problem 1: Order and Degree

      • The differential equation is 2x(d4y/dx4) + 5x2(dy/dx)3 - xy = 0.
      • The order is fourth.
      • The degree is first.
    • Problem 2: Eliminating Arbitrary Constants (CE Board November 1994)

      • The general solution is y = C₁x + C₂ex.
      • The differential equation is (x - 1)y" - xy' + y = 0.
    • Problem 3: Eliminating Arbitrary Constants (ECE Board April 1998)

      • The general solution is y2 = cx.
      • The differential equation is y' = y/2x
    • Problem 4: Variable Separable (EE Board October 1997)

      • The differential equation is dy = x2dx.
      • The curve passes through (1, 1).
      • The equation of y in terms of x is x3 - 3y + 2 = 0.
    • Problem 5: Variable Separable (EE Board October 1997)

      • The differential equation is dy - x dx = 0.
      • The curve passes through (1, 0).
      • The equation is x2 - 2y - 1 = 0.
    • Problem 6: Variable Separable (EE Board October 1995)

      • The differential equation is y' = y sec x.
      • The general solution is y = C (sec x + tan x).
    • Problem 7: Exact DE

      • The exact differential equation is 2xy dx + (2 + x2) dy = 0.
    • Problem 8: Applications (EE Board April 1997)

      • Radium decomposes at a rate proportional to the amount at any instant.
      • In 100 years, 100 mg of radium decomposes to 96 mg.
      • The amount left after 100 years is 92.16 mg.
    • Problem 9: Applications

      • Population doubles in 50 years.
      • Population increases proportionally to the number of inhabitants
      • It will take 116 years to be five times as much.
    • Problem 10: Applications (Newton's Law of Cooling)

      • The rate of cooling is proportional to the difference in temperatures.
      • Air temperature is 30°.
      • Substance cools from 100° to 70° in 15 minutes.
      • Time to cool from 100° to 50° is 33.59 minutes.
