Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \((\mathrm{A})\) and \((\mathrm{R})\) are true, \((\mathrm{R})\) is the correct explanation to \((A)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Any circle with given radius can be written as, \((x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=a^2\) where \((h, k)\) be the centre of the circle which is variable. So, in above algebraic equation, there are two arbitrary constant \(h\) and \(k\). Hence, order of differential equation will be second order.…
