The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Rewrite the differential equation.
Given, \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{y^3\cos\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}e^{1/y^2}} \] This can be written as \[ \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{y^3\cos\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}}e^{-1/y^2} \]

Step 2: Put \(u=\dfrac{1}{y^2}\).

Let \[ u=\frac{1}{y^2} \] Then, \[ \frac{du}{dx}=-\frac{2}{y^3}\frac{dy}{dx} \] Substituting \(\dfrac{dy}{dx}\), \[ \frac{du}{dx} = -\frac{2}{y^3}\cdot \frac{y^3\cos\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}}e^{-u} \] \[ \frac{du}{dx} = -\frac{2\cos\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}}e^{-u} \]

Step 3: Separate and integrate.

Multiplying by \(e^u\), \[ e^u\frac{du}{dx}=-\frac{2\cos\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}} \] Since \[ \frac{d}{dx}(e^u)=e^u\frac{du}{dx}, \] we get \[ \frac{d}{dx}(e^u)=-\frac{2\cos\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}} \] Integrating, \[ e^u=\int -\frac{2\cos\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}}\,dx \] Put \[ t=\sqrt{x} \] Then, \[ dx=2t\,dt \] So, \[ e^u=\int -\frac{2\cos t}{t}\cdot 2t\,dt \] \[ e^u=\int -4\cos t\,dt \] \[ e^u=-4\sin t+C \] Thus, \[ e^u=-4\sin\sqrt{x}+C \]

Step 4: Use the initial condition.

Given, \[ y(0)=1 \] So, \[ u=\frac{1}{y^2}=1 \] At \(x=0\), \[ e^u=e^1=e \] Also, \[ \sin\sqrt{0}=0 \] Hence, \[ e=C \] Therefore, \[ e^u=e-4\sin\sqrt{x} \]

Step 5: Compare with the given form.

Since \[ u=\frac{1}{y^2}, \] we have \[ e^{1/y^2}=e-4\sin\sqrt{x} \] Taking logarithm, \[ \frac{1}{y^2}=\log_e(e-4\sin\sqrt{x}) \] Given, \[ \frac{1}{y^2}=\log_e(f(x)) \] Therefore, \[ f(x)=e-4\sin\sqrt{x} \]

Step 6: Final conclusion.

Hence, \[ \boxed{e-4\sin\sqrt{x}} \]
