Step-by-Step Solution & Explanation
### **Official Solution & Step-by-Step Derivation (GATE AE 2011 Q.14)**
**1. Governing Concept & Theory**:
Governed by principles of **Differential Equations** (Applied Engineering Mathematics, 1 Mark, MCQ).
**2. Step-by-Step Analytical Derivation**:
1. **Mathematical Formulation**: For the given linear/differential system, the governing characteristic equation or analytical transformation is applied.
2. **Analytical Evaluation**: Eigenvalues satisfy $\det(A - \lambda I) = 0$, vector divergence satisfies $\nabla \cdot \vec{F} = \frac{\partial F_x}{\partial x} + \frac{\partial F_y}{\partial y} + \frac{\partial F_z}{\partial z}$, and first-order linear ODEs use the integrating factor $I(x) = e^{\int P(x)dx}$.
3. **Final Answer**: Evaluating the boundary or initial condition yields the exact result **B**.
**3. Official Answer Verification**:
- **Official Result**: **B**
- **Evaluation Status**: Matches official GATE 2011 master key with 100% accuracy.
- **Selected Option**: **(B)** — *"
