Which of the following statement is correct for the given partial differential equation?
Which of the following statement is correct for the given partial differential equation?
∂u/∂t + ∂u/∂x = ∂²u/∂x²
Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (D) It is non-linear equation of order two
Explanation
Note: the answer key gives (D), but the equation is linear: u and its derivatives appear only to the first power and are never multiplied together. The highest derivative is ∂²u/∂x², so it is a linear equation of order two (option A).
