Ordinary Differential Equations Question 1:
Find Green's function for y" + 5y' + 6y = sin x
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 1 Detailed Solution
Solution - The Green's Function for ODE
P(x)y" + Q(x)y'+ r(x)y = f(x) is given by
G(x,t) = \(\frac{-1}{P(t)} \frac{y_1(x)y_2(t)- y_1(t)y_2(x)}{y_1(t)y_2'(t)-y_2(t)y_1'(t)}\)
y1 and y2 are L.I solution of Homogenous Differential equation
here the homogenous differential equation is
y"+5y'+6y=0
\(m^2+5m+6= 0; (m+2)(m+3)= 0\)
\(y(x)= c_1e^{-2x}+c_2e^{-3x}\)
Now G(x,t) = \(-1\cdot\frac{(e^{-2x}e^{-3t}- e^{-2t}e^{-3x})}{e^{-2t}(-3e^{-3t})-e^{-3t}(-2e^{-2t})}\)
G(x,t) = e2(t-x) - e3(t-x)
Therefore, Correct Option is Option 2.
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 2:
For the ordinary differential equation
\((x-1) \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}\) + \((\cot \pi x) \frac{d y}{d x}\) + \(\left(\operatorname{cosec}^2 \pi x\right) y=0\)
which of the following statement is true?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 2 Detailed Solution
Solution:
Given Ordinary Differential equation is
\((x-1)y''+(cot\pi x)y'+ (cosec^2\pi x)y = 0\)
Dividing (x-1) in L.H.S and R.H.S
\(y''+\frac{(cot\pi x)y'}{x-1}+\frac {(cosec^2\pi x)y}{x-1}\) = 0
Now for x = 0
\(\lim_{x\rightarrow0}\frac{ (x-0)(cot\pi x )}{x-1} \) (0/0 form)
Using L' Hospital we get
\(\lim_{x\rightarrow 0} \frac{xcos\pi x}{(x-1)(sin\pi x)} \) (0/0 form)
Again using L' Hospital form we get
L= \(\frac{-1}{\pi}\)
now, \(lim_{x\rightarrow0} \frac{x^2cosec^2\pi x}{x-1} = \frac{2}{-2\pi^2}\)
for x=1
\(lim_{x\rightarrow 1}\frac{x-1cot\pi x}{x-1} = \infty\)
so, 0 is regular point where 1 is irregular
Therefore Option 1 is correct .
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 3:
If y(x) = v(x)sec(x) be the solution of y'' - (2tan x)y' + 5y = 0, - \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) < x < \(\frac{\pi}{2}\), satisfying y(0) = 0 and y'(0) = √6 then v(\(\frac{\pi}{6\sqrt6}\)) is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 3 Detailed Solution
Explanation:
y(x) = v sec(x) ⇒ y' = v' sec x + v sec x tan x
⇒ y'' = v'' sec x + v' sec x tan x + v' sec x tan x + v sec x tan2 x + v sec3 x
Substituting these values in the given differential equation
y'' - (2tan x)y' + 5y = 0
⇒ v'' sec x + v' sec x tan x + v' sec x tan x + v sec x tan2 x + v sec3 x - 2 v' sec x tan x - 2 v sec x tan2 x + 5v sec(x) = 0
⇒ v'' sec x + v sec3 x - v sec x tan2 x + 5v sec(x) = 0
⇒ v'' sec x + v sec x(sec2 x - tan2 x + 5) = 0
⇒ v'' sec x + 6v sec x = 0 (∵ sec2 x - tan2 x = 1)
⇒ v'' + 6v = 0
⇒ v = c1 cos(√6 x) + c2 sin(√6 x) ...(i)
Given y(0) = 0 and y'(0) = √6 ⇒ v(0) = 0 and v'(0) = √6
Substituting initial conditions
v(0) = 0 ⇒ c1 = 0
So v = c2 sin(√6 x)
v' = c2 √6 cos(√6 x)
v'(0) = √6 ⇒ c2 √6 = √6 ⇒ c2 = 1
Hence v = sin(√6 x)
∴ v(\(\frac{\pi}{6\sqrt6}\)) = sin(√6 \(\frac{\pi}{6\sqrt6}\)) = sin(\(\frac{\pi}{6}\)) = 0.5
∴ Option (3) is correct
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 4:
Consider the system of ordinary differential equations
\(\frac{dx}{dt}=\) 4x3y2 - x5y4,
\(\frac{dy}{dt}=\) x4y5 + 2x2y3.
Then for this system there exists
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 4 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Bendixon's Criterion: If fx and gy are continuous in a simply connected region ℝ2 and fx + gx ≠ 0 then the system of differential equations
\(\frac{dx}{dt}\) = f(x,y)
\(\frac{dy}{dt}\) = g(x,y)
has no closed trajectories inside ℝ
Explanation:
Here f(x,y) = 4x3y2 - x5y4 g(x,y) = x4y5 + 2x2y3
fx = 12x2y2 - 5x4y4, gy = 5x4y4 + 6x2y2
Both fx and gy are continuous and
fx + gx = 12x2y2 - 5x4y4 + 5x4y4 + 6x2y2 = 18x2y2 ≠ 0 in whole ℝ2 as it is zero on (0,0) only.
Hence by Bendixsion Criterion, there is no closed path in ℝ2
Option (4) is correct.
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 5:
For the following system of ordinary differential equations
\(\frac{dx}{dt}=x(3-2x-2y),\)
\(\frac{dy}{dt}=y(2-2x-y),\)
the critical point (0, 2) is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 5 Detailed Solution
Concept:
If the eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix at the critical point are negative then that critical point is an asymptotically stable node
Explanation:
Given system of ordinary differential equations
\(\frac{dx}{dt}=x(3-2x-2y),\)
\(\frac{dy}{dt}=y(2-2x-y),\)
So F(x,y) = x(3 - 2x - 2y) = 3x - 2x2 - 2xy and G(x,y) = y(2 - 2x - y) = 2y - 2xy - y2.
Fx = 3 - 4x - 2y, Fy = - 2x, Gx = - 2y, Gy = 2 - 2x - 2y
At (0, 2), Fx = - 3 - 4 = - 1, Fy = 0, Gx = - 4, Gy = 2 - 0 - 4 = - 2
Hence at (0,2) Jacobian is
J(0,2) = \(\begin{bmatrix}-1&0\\-4&-2\end{bmatrix}\)
This is an upper triangular matrix so eigenvalues are -1, -2.
Both eigenvalues are negative so (0,2) is a stable node.
Option (3) is correct.
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 6:
If y(x) is a solution of the equation
4xy" + 2y' + y = 0
Satisfying y(0) = 1. Then y" (0) is equal to
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 6 Detailed Solution
Concept:
- Ordinary Point: A point x = x0 is called an ordinary point of differential equation y'' + P(x)y' + Q(x) = 0, if P(x) and Q(x) are both analytical at x = x0.
-
A singular point x = x0 is called regular singular point if both (x - x0)P(x) and (x - x0)2Q(x) are analytic at x = x0. Otherwise it is called irregular singular point.
-
The indicial equation in variable m for regular singular point x0 is represented by m(m - 1) + pm + q = 0, where p =\(\lim_{x\to x_0}(x - x_0)P(x)\) and q = \(\lim_{x\to x_0}(x - x_0)^2Q(x)\).
Calculation:
We have, 4xy" + 2y' + y = 0
⇒ \(y''+\frac{1}{2x}\frac{dy}{dx}+\frac{1}{4x}y=0\)
⇒ P(x) = \(\frac{1}{2x}\) and Q(x) = \(\frac{1}{4x}\)
⇒ x = 0 is a singular point.
Also, \(\lim_{x\to 0}xP(x)\) = \(\lim_{x\to 0}x(\frac{1}{2x})\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\) = p
\(\lim_{x\to 0}x^2Q(x)\) = \(\lim_{x\to 0}x^2(\frac{1}{4x})\) = 0 = q
⇒ x = 0 is a regular singular point.
Now, indicial equation for the given differential equation is given by m(m - 1) + pm + q = 0
⇒ \(m^2-m+\frac{m}{2}=0\)
⇒ \(m^2-\frac{m}{2}=0\)
⇒ \(m = 0, \frac{1}{2}\) [Distinct roots]
Therefore, we get two independent solutions corresponding to two different value of m.
Since, x = x0 is regular singular point, we have to use Forbenious method to get the required solution.
Let, \(y =\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_n x^{m+n}\)
⇒ \(y' =\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}(m+n) a_n x^{m+n-1}\)
⇒ \(y'' =\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}(m+n)(m+n-1) a_n x^{m+n-2}\)
Substituting the values of y, y' and y" in the given equation, we have,
\(4 x \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}(m+n)(m+n-1) a_n x^{m+n-2}\)
\(+2 \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}(m+n) a_n x^{m+n-1}+\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_n x^{m+n}\) = 0
⇒ \(\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} 4(m+n)(m+n-1) a_n x^{m+n-1}\)
\(+\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} 2(m+n) a_n x^{m+n-1}+\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_n x^{m+n}\) = 0
Shifting the index of first two terms to m+n, we have
⇒ \(\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} 4(m+n+1)(m+n) a_{n+1} x^{m+n}\)
\(+\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} 2(m+n+1) a_{n+1} x^{m+n} +\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_n x^{m+n}\) = 0
In general, equating co-efficient of \(x^{m+n}\) to zero, we have
⇒ \([4(m+n+1)(m+n)+2(m+n+1)] a_{n+1}+a_n=0\)
⇒ \(a_{n+1}=\frac{a_n}{[4(m+n+1)(m+n)+2(m+n+1)]}, n \geq 0\)
When m = 0:
\(a_{n+1}=\frac{a_n}{[4(n+1)(n)+2(n+1)]}, n\geq0\)
\(a_1=\frac{a_0}{2}\)
\(a_2=\frac{a_1}{12}=\frac{a_0}{24}\), and so on.
Therefore, when m=0, one of the solution of y(x) is
\(y(x)=x^0(a_0+a_1 x+a_2 x^2+\cdots )\)
⇒ \(y(x)=a_0+\frac{a_0}{2}+\frac{a_0}{24} x^2+\cdots .\)
Substituting the initial condition y(0) = 1, we get a0 = 1
∴ \( y(x)=1+\frac{x}{2}+\frac{x^2}{24}+\cdots \)
⇒ \(y'(x)=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{x}{12}+\cdots\)
⇒ \(y''(x)=\frac{1}{12}+\underbrace{\cdots \cdots \cdots}_{\text {higher power of } x}\)
∴ \(y''(0)=\frac{1}{12}\)
The correct answer is Option 2.
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 7:
Let ϕ denote the solution to the boundary value problem (BVP)
\(\rm \left\{\begin{matrix}(xy')'-2y'+\frac{y}{x}=1,&1
Then the value of ϕ(e) is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 7 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Second-Order Differential Equations: Solve the homogeneous equation first, then find the particular solution.
Boundary Value Problems: Use boundary conditions to determine the constants in the general solution.
Explanation:
\((xy')' - 2y' + \frac{y}{x} = 1, \quad 1 < x < e^4\)
with boundary conditions \(y(1) = 0, \quad y(e^4) = 4e^4\)
Rewriting the equation:
The equation is simplified to
\(x^2 y'' - xy' + y = x\)
Let x = ez then it becomes
⇒ {D'(D' - 1) - D' + 1}y = ez
⇒ (D'2 - 2D' + 1)y = ez
Auxiliary equation is
m2 - 2m + 1 = 0
⇒ \((m-1)^2 = 0\)
⇒ \(m = 1,1 \)
CF = C1ez + C2zez
i.e., CF = \( C_1 x + C_2 x \ln(x)\)
PI = \({1\over (D'^2-2D'+1)}e^z\)
= \(e^z{1\over ((D'+1)^2-2(D'+1)+1)}.1\)
= \(e^z{1\over D'^2}.1\)
= \({z^2\over 2}e^z\) = \(\frac {x(\ln x)^2}{2}\)
\( y(x) = C_1 x + C_2 x \ln(x) \)+ \(\frac {x(ln x)^2}{2}\)
Applying Boundary Conditions:
y(1) = 0:
\(C_1 \cdot 1 + C_2 \cdot 1 \ln(1) + \frac{1^2}{2}.0 = 0\)
⇒ \(C_1 = 0\)
\(y(e^4) = 4e^4 \):
\(\frac{1}{2} e^4 + C_2 e^4 \ln(e^4) + e^4\frac{(ln e^4)^2}{2} = 4e^4\)
⇒ \( C_2 e^4 \cdot 4 + 8{e^4} = 4e^4\)
⇒ \(c_2 = -1\)
\(y(x) = -x ln x + \)\(\frac {x(ln x)^2}{2}\)
⇒ \(y(e) = -e +\frac{e}{2}\)
⇒ \(y(e) = - \frac{e}{2}\)
Hence option 1) is correct.
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 8:
The initial value problem
\(\rm \frac{dy}{dx}=\cos(xy),\) x ∈ ℝ, y(0) = y0,
where y0 is a real constant, has
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 8 Detailed Solution
Concept:
Picard’s Existence and Uniqueness Theorem: Consider the Initial Value Problem (IVP) \(\rm \frac{dy}{dx}=f(x, y)\), y(x0) = y0, suppose that f(x, y) and \(\frac{\partial f}{\partial y}\) are continuous functions in some open rectangle R = {(x, y): a < x < b, c < y < d} that contains the point (x0, y0) . Then the IVP has a unique solution in some closed interval I = [x0 - h,x0 + h] where h > 0.
Explanation:
\(\rm \frac{dy}{dx}=\cos(xy),\) x ∈ ℝ, y(0) = y0,
Here f(x, y) = cos(xy)
\(\frac{\partial f}{\partial y}\)(x, y) = - x sin(xy)
Both are continuous in a open rectangular region R = {(x, y): a < x < b, c < y < d} containing (0, y0)
Now, |\(\frac{\partial f}{\partial y}\)(x, y)| = |-x sin(xy)| = |x||sin(xy)| ≤ |x| < b (as |sin(xy)| ≤ 1 for all x, y ℝ)
Hence by Picard’s existence and uniqueness theorem,
the given IVP has a unique solution
Option (1) is true
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 9:
Let y0 > 0, z0 > 0 and α > 1.
(∗) \(\left\{\begin{array}{l}\frac{d y}{d t}=y^{\alpha} \quad \text { for } t>0, \\ y(0)=y_{0}\end{array}\right.\)
(∗∗) \(\left\{\begin{array}{l}\frac{d z}{d t}=-z^{\alpha} \quad \text { for } t>0, \\ z(0)=z_{0}\end{array}\right.\)
We say that the solution to a differential equation exists globally if it exists for all t > 0.
Which of the following statements is true?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 9 Detailed Solution
Explanation:
y0 > 0, z0 > 0 and α > 1.
(∗) \(\left\{\begin{array}{l}\frac{d y}{d t}=y^{α} \quad \text { for } t>0, \\ y(0)=y_{0}\end{array}\right.\)
(∗∗) \(\left\{\begin{array}{l}\frac{d z}{d t}=-z^{α} \quad \text { for } t>0, \\ z(0)=z_{0}\end{array}\right.\)
Let us assume α = 2
then (∗) ⇒
\(\frac{d y}{d t}=y^{2}, y(0)=y_{0}\)
⇒ \(\frac{dy}{y^2}\) = dt
⇒ \(-\frac{1}{y}\) = t + c (integrating)
Using y(0) = y0 we get
c = \(-\frac{1}{y_0}\)
⇒ \(-\frac{1}{y}\) = t \(-\frac{1}{y_0}\)
⇒ y = \(-\frac{y_o}{1-ty_0}\)
y is not defined if
1 - ty0 = 0 ⇒ t = \(\frac{1}{y_0}\) > 0 as y0 > 0
So (∗) does not have a global solution.
(1), (2) are false
\(\lim_{t\to\frac{1}{y_0}}|y(t)|=+\infty\)
(4) is correct
If we check (∗∗) by taking α = 2 we can see that (3) is false
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 10:
Consider the ordinary differential equation y" + P(x)y' + Q(x)y = 0 where P and Q are smooth functions. Let y1 and y2 be any two solutions of the ODE. Let W(x) be the corresponding Wronskian. Then which of the following is always true?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Ordinary Differential Equations Question 10 Detailed Solution
Concept:
(i) If y1 and y2 are linearly independent then W(x) ≠ 0 ∀ x
(ii) If y1 and y2 are linearly dependent then W(x) = 0 ∀ x
Explanation:
By direct result, (4) is correct only
