Medium MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2025

Let $\mathrm{y}=\mathrm{y}(\mathrm{x})$ be the solution of the differential equation $\left(x y-5 x^2 \sqrt{1+x^2}\right) d x+\left(1+x^2\right) d y=0, y(0)=0$. Then $y(\sqrt{3})$ is equal to

  1. A $\frac{5 \sqrt{3}}{2}$ Correct answer
  2. B $\sqrt{\frac{15}{2}}$
  3. C $\sqrt{\frac{14}{3}}$
  4. D $2 \sqrt{2}$

Solution

<p>$$\begin{aligned} & \left(1+x^2\right) \frac{d y}{d x}+x y=5 x^1 \sqrt{1+x^2} \\ & \frac{d y}{d x}+\frac{x y}{1+x^2}=\frac{5 x^2}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \\ & \therefore \text { I.F. }=e^{\int \frac{x}{1+x^2} d x}=e^{\frac{\ln \left(1+x^2\right)}{2}}=\sqrt{1+x^2} \\ & \therefore y \sqrt{1+x^2}=\int \frac{5 x^2}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \cdot \sqrt{1+x^2} d x \\ & \therefore y \sqrt{1+x^2}=\int \frac{5 x^2}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \cdot \sqrt{1+x^2} d x \\ & y \sqrt{1+x^2}=\frac{5 x^3}{3}+C \\ & \because y(0)=0 \Rightarrow 0=0+C \Rightarrow C=0 \\ & \therefore y=\frac{5 x^3}{3 \sqrt{1+x^2}} \\ & y(\sqrt{3})=\frac{15 \sqrt{3}}{32}=\frac{5 \sqrt{3}}{2} \end{aligned}$$</p>
