(a) For the initial value problem (12) of Example 9. Show that ϕ1(x)=0 andϕ2(x)=(x-2)3are solutions. Hence, this initial value problem has multiple solutions. (See also Project G in Chapter 2.)

(b) Does the initial value problemy'=3y23,y(0)=10-7have a unique solution in a neighbourhood ofx=0?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. For the giveninitial value problem (12), ϕ1x=0andϕ2x=x-23 are solutions. Hence, this initial value problem has multiple solutions.
  2. The initial value problemy'=3y23,y0=10-7 has a unique solution in a neighbourhood of x=0.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1(a): Showing that the given initial value problem (12) has multiple solutions

Clearly, ϕ1x=0as y is a solution to the given initial value problem.

Now taking y=ϕ2x=x-23

dydx=3x-22dydx=3y23

(Because, y=x-23, i.e., y13=x-2)

which is identical to the given differential equation. So, ϕ2x=x-23is a solution to the differential equation dydx=3y23.

Hence, this initial value problem has multiple solutions.

02

Finding the partial derivative of the given relation with respect to y

Here,fx,y=3y23

∂f∂y=2y-13∂f∂y=2y13

which is continuous in any rectangle containing the point 0,10-7.

03

Step 3(b): Verify whether the given initial value problem y'=3y23, y(0)=10-7 has a unique solution in a neighbourhood of x=0 or not

Now from Step 1, we find that both of the functionsfx,yand∂f∂yare continuous in any rectangle containing the point 0,10-7, so the hypotheses of Theorem 1 are satisfied.

It then follows from the theorem that the given initial value problem has a unique solution in an interval about x=0of the form -δ,δ, whereδis some positive number.

Therefore, the initial value problem y'=3y23,y(0)=10-7 have a unique solution in a neighbourhood of x=0.

In Problems 14–24, you will need a computer and a programmed version of the vectorized classical fourth-order Runge–Kutta algorithm. (At the instructor’s discretion, other algorithms may be used.)†

Using the vectorized Runge–Kutta algorithm, approximate the solution to the initial value problem

dudx=3u-4v;u(0)=1'dvdx=2u-3v;v(0)=1

at x = 1. Starting with h=1, continue halving the step size until two successive approximations of u(1)and v(1) differ by at most 0.001.

In Problems 13-16, write a differential equation that fits the physical description. The rate of change of the mass A of salt at time t is proportional to the square of the mass of salt present at time t.

Question: The Taylor series for f(x) =ln (x)about x2=0given in equation (13) can also be obtained as follows:

(a)Starting with the expansion 1/ (1-s) =∑n=0∞s'' and observing that

'

obtain the Taylor series for 1/xabout x0= 1.

(b)Since use the result of part (a) and termwise integration to obtain the Taylor series for f (x)=lnxaboutx0= 1.

In Problems 9-13, determine whether the given relation is an implicit solution to the given differential equation. Assume that the relationship implicitly defines y as a function of x and use implicit differentiation.

y-logey=x2+1,dydx=2xyy-1

Use the method in Problem 32 to find the orthogonal trajectories for each of the given families of curves, where k is a parameter.

(b)y=kx4

(c)y=ekx

(d)y2=kx

[Hint: First express the family in the form F(x, y) = k.]
