The difference between degree and order of a differential equation that represents the family of curves given byy2=ax+a2,a>0is _______.

Answer:
2.00
Solution:

y2=ax+a2=ax+a3/22   ...1

2yy'=a

Put in equation 1 we get, 

y2=2yy'x+2yy'3/22

y2-2xyy'=2yy'3/22

Squaring both the sides we get, 

y2-2xyy'2=2y3y'3

 Order =1

Degree =3

Degree - order =3-1=2
