    The solution of \[\frac{{{\text{d}}^{\text{2}}}\text{x}}{\text{d}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}}}\text{-x=k,}\] where k is a non-zero constant, vanishes when y = 0 and tends of finite limit as y  tends to infinity, is

    A) \[x=k\left( 1+{{e}^{-y}} \right)\]              

    B) \[\text{x=k}\left( {{\text{e}}^{\text{y}}}\text{+}{{\text{e}}^{\text{-y}}}\text{-2} \right)\]

    C) \[\text{x=k}\left( {{\text{e}}^{\text{-y}}}\text{-1} \right)\]                         

    D) \[\text{x=k}\left( {{\text{e}}^{\text{y}}}\text{-1} \right)\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Rewriting given differential equation as,                        \[t=n{{T}_{1/2}}=0.74\times 4.47\times {{10}^{8}}\]                         ....(1) where             \[t=3.3\times {{10}^{8}}yr\] Its auxiliary equation is \[Y\left( n,\alpha  \right)\]so that                         M = 1, -1 Hence,             \[\alpha -\] where,    \[_{Z}{{Y}^{A}}{{+}_{0}}{{n}^{1}}{{\to }_{3}}L{{i}^{7}}{{+}_{2}}H{{e}^{4}}\] are arbitrary constants. Now,            \[\Rightarrow \]                   \[_{\text{5}}{{\text{Y}}^{\text{10}}}{{\text{=}}_{\text{5}}}{{\text{B}}^{\text{10}}}\]                  \[{{E}_{n}}=-\frac{13.6}{{{n}^{2}}}eV\] So, solution of Eq. (i) is       \[\Rightarrow \]                   ...(ii) Given that x = 0, when y = 0 Hence, Eq. (ii) gives           \[34=-\frac{13.6}{{{n}^{2}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]    \[{{n}^{2}}=4\]                           .....(iii) Multiplying both sides of Eq. (ii) by  \[\Rightarrow \] we get               \[x.{{e}^{-y}}={{C}_{1}}+{{C}_{2}}{{e}^{-2y}}-k{{e}^{-y}}\] Given that \[x\to m\]when  \[y\to \infty ,\] m being a finite quantity. So, Eq.   (iv) becomes              \[x\times 0={{C}_{1}}+{{C}_{2}}\times 0-\left( k\times 0 \right)\] \[\Rightarrow \]            \[{{C}_{1}}=0\] From Eqs. (iv) and (v), we get                   \[{{C}_{1}}=0\]  and   \[{{C}_{2}}=k\] Hence, Eq. (ii) becomes               \[x=k{{e}^{-y}}-k\]                \[=k\left( {{e}^{-y}}-1 \right)\]
