Answer:
Correct Answer: 17. (b)
Solution:
- PLAN (i) Solution of the differential equation $\frac{d y}{d x}+P y=Q$ is
$ \begin{aligned} y \cdot(IF) & =\int Q \cdot(IF) d x+c \\ \text { where, } \quad & \quad \mathbb{F}=e^{\int P d x} \end{aligned} $
(ii) $\int _{-a}^{a} f(x) d x=2 \int _0^{a} f(x) d x$, if $f(-x)=f(x)$
Given differential equation
$ \frac{d y}{d x}+\frac{x}{x^{2}-1} y=\frac{x^{4}+2 x}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}} $
This is a linear differential equation.
$ \begin{aligned} & IF=e^{\int \frac{x}{x^{2}-1} d x}=e^{\frac{1}{2} \ln \left|x^{2}-1\right|}=\sqrt{1-x^{2}} \\ & \Rightarrow \text { Solution is } y \sqrt{1-x^{2}}=\int \frac{x\left(x^{3}+2\right)}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}} \cdot \sqrt{1-x^{2}} d x \\ & \text { or } \quad y \sqrt{1-x^{2}}=\int\left(x^{4}+2 x\right) d x=\frac{x^{5}}{5}+x^{2}+c \\ & f(0)=0 \Rightarrow c=0 \Rightarrow f(x) \sqrt{1-x^{2}}=\frac{x^{5}}{5}+x^{2} \\ & \text { Now, } \int _{-\sqrt{3} / 2}^{\sqrt{3} / 2} f(x) d x=\int _{-\sqrt{3} / 2}^{\sqrt{3} / 2} \frac{x^{2}}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}} d x \\ & =2 \int _0^{\sqrt{3} / 2} \frac{x^{2}}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}}} d x \\ & \left.=2 \int _0^{\pi / 3} \frac{\sin ^{2} \theta}{\cos \theta} \cos \theta d \theta \quad \text { [taking } x=\sin \theta\right] \\ & =2 \int _0^{\pi / 3} \sin ^{2} \theta d \theta=\int _0^{\pi / 3}(1-\cos 2 \theta) d \theta \\ & =\theta-\frac{\sin 2 \theta}{2} _0^{\pi / 3}=\frac{\pi}{3}-\frac{\sin 2 \pi / 3}{2}=\frac{\pi}{3}-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} \end{aligned} $
