How would I solve an equation where one of the differential terms is to a power? For example:
$frac{d^2y}{dx^2}+k(frac{dy}{dx})^2=0$?
I've been given advice to use the $D$ operator which apparently means $frac{d}{dx}()$ but I'm not sure how that's applicable to this scenario. Any alternative suggestions or explanations would be appreciated!

Since you only have second and first derivatives of $y$ and no
un-differentiated $y$, you could try to introduce the new function $v=frac{dy}{dx}$. Your differential equation will turn into $frac{dv}{dx}+kv^2=0$, and I guess you will manage to take it from here.
