Question
Choose the correct answer from the given four option.
The differential equation for $\text{y}=\text{A}\cos\alpha\text{x}+\text{B}\sin\alpha\text{x},$ where A and B are arbitrary constants is:
  1. $\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}-\alpha^2\text{y}=0$
  2. $\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}+\alpha^2\text{y}=0$
  3. $\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}+\alpha\text{y}=0$
  4. $\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}-\alpha\text{y}=0$

Answer

  1. $\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}+\alpha^2\text{y}=0$

Solution:

Given, $\text{y}=\text{A}\cos\alpha\text{x}+\text{B}\sin\alpha\text{x}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}}=-\alpha\text{A}\sin\alpha\text{x}+\alpha\text{B}\cos\alpha\text{x}$

Again, differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get

$\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}=-\text{A}\alpha^2\cos\alpha\text{x}-\alpha^2\text{B}\sin\alpha\text{x}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}=-\alpha^2(\text{A}\cos\alpha\text{x}-\text{B}\sin\alpha\text{x})$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}=-\alpha^2\text{y}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}+\alpha^2\text{y}=0$
