    The differential equation satisfied by the family of curves \[y=ax\cos \,\left( \frac{1}{x}+b \right)\], where a, b are parameters, is [MP PET 2003]

    A)                 \[{{x}^{2}}{{y}_{2}}+y=0\]         

    B)                 \[{{x}^{4}}{{y}_{2}}+y=0\]

    C)                 \[x{{y}_{2}}-y=0\]             

    D)                 \[{{x}^{4}}{{y}_{2}}-y=0\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       \[y=ax\cos \left( \frac{1}{x}+b \right)\]                  .?. (i)         Differentiate (i), we get         \[{{y}_{1}}=a\,\left[ \cos \left( \frac{1}{x}+b \right)-x\sin \left( \frac{1}{x}+b \right)\text{ }\left( \frac{-1}{{{x}^{2}}} \right) \right]\]      \[=a\left[ \cos \,\left( \frac{1}{x}+b \right)+\frac{1}{x}\sin \left( \frac{1}{x}+b \right) \right]\]  .....(ii)         Again, differentiate (ii), we get \[{{y}_{2}}=\frac{-a}{{{x}^{3}}}\cos \left( \frac{1}{x}+b \right)\]                 \[=\frac{-ax}{{{x}^{4}}}\cos \left( \frac{1}{x}+b \right)\]\[=\frac{-y}{{{x}^{4}}}\] Þ \[\left( \frac{1}{{{y}^{2}}}-\frac{1}{y} \right)dy+\left( \frac{1}{{{x}^{2}}}+\frac{1}{x} \right)dx=0\].
