Question

Define degree of a differential equation.

Answer 1

Degree of differential equation:

The degree of a differential equation is the power of the highest order derivative occurring in a differential equation when it is written as a polynomial in differential coefficients.

example: ${\left(\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}\right)}^2-4\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)=2y$
the degree of the given differential equation is 2
