In Problems 19–24, convert the given second-order equation into a first-order system by setting v=y’. Then find all the critical points in the yv-plane. Finally, sketch (by hand or software) the direction fields, and describe the stability of the critical points (i.e., compare with Figure 5.12).
In Problems 11–14, solve the related phase plane differential equation for the given system. Then sketch by hand several representative trajectories (with their flow arrows).
In Problems 3 – 18, use the elimination method to find a general solution for the given linear system, where differentiation is with respect to t.
