FAQs on Determination of Complete Solution when one solution is known and Method of Variation of Parameter - Mathematics Optional Notes for UPSC

1. How can one determine the complete solution when one solution is known?
Ans. One can determine the complete solution by using the method of Variation of Parameters, which involves finding a particular solution by assuming it to be of a specific form and then solving for the unknown parameters.
2. What is the significance of knowing one solution in finding the complete solution?
Ans. Knowing one solution helps in finding the complete solution as it provides a starting point for applying the method of Variation of Parameters to determine the general solution to the differential equation.
3. Can the method of Variation of Parameters be used for all types of differential equations?
Ans. The method of Variation of Parameters is typically used for linear differential equations, especially when finding the complete solution when one solution is known.
4. How does the method of Variation of Parameters differ from other methods of solving differential equations?
Ans. The method of Variation of Parameters differs from other methods as it involves assuming a particular solution form and solving for the unknown parameters, whereas other methods may involve different techniques such as separation of variables or substitution.
5. Are there any limitations to using the method of Variation of Parameters for finding the complete solution?
Ans. While the method of Variation of Parameters is effective for finding the complete solution when one solution is known, it may become complex for higher-order differential equations or equations with non-constant coefficients. In such cases, other methods may be more suitable.
