In Problems 1 and 2, verify that the pair x(t), and y(t) is a solution to the given system. Sketch the trajectory of the given solution in the phase plane.
Find a general solution for the differential equation with x as the independent variable:
In Problems 14鈥24, you will need a computer and a programmed version of the vectorized classical fourth-order Runge鈥揔utta algorithm. (At the instructor鈥檚 discretion, other algorithms may be used.)鈥
Using the vectorized Runge鈥揔utta algorithm, approximate the solution to the initial value problem
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.
A model for the velocity v at time tof a certain object falling under the influence of gravity in a viscous medium is given by the equation .From the direction field shown in Figure 1.14, sketch the solutions with the initial conditions v(0) = 5, 8, and 15. Why is the value v = 8 called the 鈥渢erminal velocity鈥?
