State whether the following statement is true or false:

Order and degree of a differential equation are always positive integers.

Options

  • True

  • False

MCQ
True or False

Solution

This statement is true.

Explanation:

The order of a differential equation is always a positive integer. But a degree is defined only when the equation is polynomial in derivatives and may not exist in some cases. So they are not always positive integers.
