The correct answer is: 2,3
(D)
Raising both sides of differential equation to degree 3 , we get
$\begin{array}{l}
{\left[1+\frac{1}{\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^{2}}\right]^{5}=125\left(\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}\right)^{3}} \\
{\left[\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^{2}+1\right]^{5}=125 \cdot\left(\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}\right)^{3}\left[\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^{2}\right]^{5}}
\end{array}$
$\therefore$ Its order is 2 and degree is $3 .$
