Unit 4758: Differential Equations
OCR (Oxford Cambridge and RSA) is a leading UK awarding body, providing a wide range of
qualifications to meet the needs of candidates of all ages and abilities. OCR qualifications
include AS/A Levels, Diplomas, GCSEs, Cambridge Nationals, Cambridge Technicals,
Functional Skills, Key Skills, Entry Level qualifications, NVQs and vocational qualifications in
areas such as IT, business, languages, teaching/training, administration and secretarial skills.
It is also responsible for developing new specifications to meet national requirements and the
needs of students and teachers. OCR is a not-for-profit organisation; any surplus made is
invested back into the establishment to help towards the development of qualifications and
support, which keep pace with the changing needs of todays society.
This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and students, to indicate the requirements
of the examination. It shows the basis on which marks were awarded by examiners. It does not
indicate the details of the discussions which took place at an examiners meeting before marking
commenced.
All examiners are instructed that alternative correct answers and unexpected approaches in
candidates scripts must be given marks that fairly reflect the relevant knowledge and skills
demonstrated.
Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the published question papers and the report
on the examination.
OCR will not enter into any discussion or correspondence in connection with this mark scheme.

Mark Scheme
January 2013
An element of professional judgement is required in the marking of any written paper. Remember that the mark scheme is designed to
assist in marking incorrect solutions. Correct solutions leading to correct answers are awarded full marks but work must not be judged on
the answer alone, and answers that are given in the question, especially, must be validly obtained; key steps in the working must always be
looked at and anything unfamiliar must be investigated thoroughly.
Correct but unfamiliar or unexpected methods are often signalled by a correct result following an apparently incorrect method. Such work
must be carefully assessed. When a candidate adopts a method which does not correspond to the mark scheme, award marks according to
the spirit of the basic scheme; if you are in any doubt whatsoever (especially if several marks or candidates are involved) you should contact
your Team Leader.
4758
Mark Scheme
January 2013
Unless otherwise indicated, marks once gained cannot subsequently be lost, eg wrong working following a correct form of answer is
ignored. Sometimes this is reinforced in the mark scheme by the abbreviation isw. However, this would not apply to a case where a
candidate passes through the correct answer as part of a wrong argument.
d
When a part of a question has two or more method steps, the M marks are in principle independent unless the scheme specifically says
otherwise; and similarly where there are several B marks allocated. (The notation dep * is used to indicate that a particular mark is
dependent on an earlier, asterisked, mark in the scheme.) Of course, in practice it may happen that when a candidate has once gone
wrong in a part of a question, the work from there on is worthless so that no more marks can sensibly be given. On the other hand, when
two or more steps are successfully run together by the candidate, the earlier marks are implied and full credit must be given.
The abbreviation ft implies that the A or B mark indicated is allowed for work correctly following on from previously incorrect results.
Otherwise, A and B marks are given for correct work only differences in notation are of course permitted. A (accuracy) marks are not
given for answers obtained from incorrect working. When A or B marks are awarded for work at an intermediate stage of a solution, there
may be various alternatives that are equally acceptable. In such cases, exactly what is acceptable will be detailed in the mark scheme
rationale. If this is not the case please consult your Team Leader.
Sometimes the answer to one part of a question is used in a later part of the same question. In this case, A marks will often be follow
through. In such cases you must ensure that you refer back to the answer of the previous part question even if this is not shown within the
image zone. You may find it easier to mark follow through questions candidate-by-candidate rather than question-by-question.
Unless units are specifically requested, there is no penalty for wrong or missing units as long as the answer is numerically correct and
expressed either in SI or in the units of the question. (e.g. lengths will be assumed to be in metres unless in a particular question all the
lengths are in km, when this would be assumed to be the unspecified unit.)
We are usually quite flexible about the accuracy to which the final answer is expressed and we do not penalise over-specification.
When a value is given in the paper
Only accept an answer correct to at least as many significant figures as the given value. This rule should be applied to each case.
When a value is not given in the paper
Accept any answer that agrees with the correct value to 2 s.f.
ft should be used so that only one mark is lost for each distinct accuracy error, except for errors due to premature approximation which
should be penalised only once in the examination.
There is no penalty for using a wrong value for g. E marks will be lost except when results agree to the accuracy required in the question.
4758
g
Mark Scheme
January 2013
For a genuine misreading (of numbers or symbols) which is such that the object and the difficulty of the question remain unaltered, mark
according to the scheme but following through from the candidates data. A penalty is then applied; 1 mark is generally appropriate, though
this may differ for some units. This is achieved by withholding one A mark in the question.
Marks designated as cao may be awarded as long as there are no other errors. E marks are lost unless, by chance, the given results are
established by equivalent working.
Fresh starts will not affect an earlier decision about a misread.
Note that a miscopy of the candidates own working is not a misread but an accuracy error.
If a graphical calculator is used, some answers may be obtained with little or no working visible. Allow full marks for correct answers
(provided, of course, that there is nothing in the wording of the question specifying that analytical methods are required). Where an answer
is wrong but there is some evidence of method, allow appropriate method marks. Wrong answers with no supporting method score zero. If
in doubt, consult your Team Leader.

(i)
Almost all candidates were able to use the information in the question to make a good
attempt at solving the given third order differential equation. The complementary
function was usually found accurately, but there were a surprising number of numerical
errors when finding the particular integral.
(ii)
The majority of candidates were successful in using the initial conditions to find a
particular solution; it was pleasing to see that the less familiar form of condition, that y
was bounded for very large values of x, was interpreted correctly.
(iii)
Candidates seemed less confident in answering this part. A common error was to
assume that the coefficient of either the sine or the cosine term was equal to the
amplitude of the motion.
(iv)
The majority of candidates were able to use the condition that y was bounded for very
large negative values of x to deduce that two of the unknown coefficients in their
particular solution from part (i) had to be zero. Many candidates then went on to apply
the other two initial conditions to obtain two different values for the remaining
coefficient, indicating that there was no consistent solution. A common error was to
apply just one of the initial conditions to find the unknown coefficient and then state that
this was a solution.
(i)
Almost all candidates applied Newton's second law to establish the given differential
equation. They then proceeded to find the general solution either by the integrating
factor method or by separating the variables or by finding the complementary function
and particular integral. The three methods were equally popular and successful. A
significant minority of candidates did not seem to realise that they needed to apply the
initial condition, that the ball fell from rest, to find the value of their constant of
integration.
24
(iii)
There were some excellent solutions to this part of the question with very clear accurate
work and gaining full marks. However, the majority of candidates struggled to solve the
differential equation. Separating the variables leads to an integral of the form
1
a
x2
dx and evaluating this proved to be a stumbling block for the majority. The
Euler's method is familiar territory for candidates and the majority of candidates were
successful, presenting their working clearly.
(v)
(a)
Almost all candidates recognised the method of solution as the integrating factor
method and made a good start. Most candidates evaluated the integrating factor
correctly as cos x, but they did not recognise a method of evaluating sin x cos xdx , the
integral that appeared on the right hand side of the differential equation. There are
many valid approaches, either by direct integration or by using a double angle formula
or using a substitution and it was surprisingly that none of these came to mind for many
candidates.
(b)
Only a handful of candidates made any meaningful progress with this request and the
majority offered very little as an attempt at a solution. A common error was to substitute
dy
y p( x ) into equation (1) only partially, with
retained. A similar procedure for
dx
equation (2) led to inevitable confusion between y, p and c.
(c)(i)
Many candidates missed the obvious approach here, expressed clearly in the
instruction to verify. All that was necessary was to differentiate the given function and
substitute into equation (3). A surprising number of candidates attempted to solve
equation (3), not realising that this was not within their scope, and that the structure of
the question was to lead them through a method of solution.
(ii)
Many candidates had abandoned their attempts at this question by this stage, but to
those who proceeded, this was familiar territory.
(iii)
This part brought together parts (b) and (c) but only a few candidates grasped the
structure of the question and pursued it to the end.
(i)
Almost all candidates gained the majority of the marks in this part. The method of
approach was understood and any marks lost were due to arithmetic slips in
manipulating the functions or in solving the auxiliary equation.
25
Again, candidates knew what they had to do. Answers to part (i) were followed through
for the majority of the marks.
(iii)
The method was applied successfully, although by this stage most candidates had
made at least one arithmetical slip. Fully correct expressions for x and y were rarely
seen.
(iv)
Candidates who had made errors in the previous parts of this question were at a
disadvantage because their expression for x y did not usually tend to a finite limit.
Credit was given for the correct interpretation of the behaviour of the candidate's
incorrect expression.
