10-2. Parabola, Ellipse, Hyperbola
normal
The differential equation $\frac{{dx}}{{dy}}= \frac{{3y}}{{2x}}$ represents a family of hyperbolas (except when it represents a pair of lines) with eccentricity :
A
$\sqrt {\frac{5}{3}} $
B
$\sqrt {\frac{5}{2}} $
C
$ \sqrt {\frac{3}{5}} $
D
both $(A)$ and $(B)$
Solution
$ x^2 =\frac{{3{y^2}}}{2} + c $
if $c$ is positive $ \Rightarrow $ $e =\sqrt {\frac{5}{3}} $
if $c$ is negative $\Rightarrow$ $ e = \sqrt {\frac{5}{2}} $
