- Order of a differential equation is defined as the order of the highest order derivative of the dependent variable with respect to the independent variable involved in the given differential equation.
ex : ( d2y/dx2) + dy/dx +y=0
here order is two as the highest order term is d2y/dx2
- degree it is the power of hieght order term
ex ( d2y/dx2)4 + dy/dx +y=0
here the hieght order term is d2y/dx2 and it is raised to power of 4 degree is 4
- Order and degree (if defined) of a differential equation are alway positive integers
- the dedgree is defined only wn the equation is polynomial in dervative terms it is not define wn deravative term is in exponent function or trignometric or log function
ex : (dy/dx) +sin(dy/dx)=0
the degree is not define
