Differential equation Definition and 1000 Threads

One thing that is given in paper (attached) is a operating set point for temperature which is given as 20 for day and 16 for night but I do not know whether its initial condition for temperature or not. Can anyone please guide me that what kind of equation is it and how can I solve it with these...

$$p=\gamma m v$$ $$F = \frac {md (\gamma v}{dt}$$ $$\int{F dt} = \int{md (\gamma v}$$ $$F t= \gamma mv$$ At this step, I don't know how to make v as explicit function of t, since gamma is a function of v too. Thankss

Here is my attempt at a solution: y = f(x) yp - ym = dy/dx(xp-xm) ym = 0 yp = dy/dx(xp-xm) xm=ypdy/dx + xm xm is midpoint of OT xm = (ypdy/dx + xm) /2 Not sure where to go from there because the solution from the link uses with the midpoint of the points A and B intersecting the x-axis...

Hi, I really struggled to dig valuable things out of internet and books related to high order homogeneous differential equation with variable coefficients but I have nothing. All methods I see involves given solution and try to find others(like reduction of order method), even for second order...

This is quite literally a showerthought; a differential equation is a statement that holds for all ##x## within a specified domain, e.g. ##f''(x) + 5f'(x) + 6f(x) = 0##. So why is it called a differential equation, and not a differential identity? Perhaps because it only holds for a specific set...

I am unable to complete the first part of the question. After I plug in the function for psi into the differential equation I am stuck: $$\frac {d \psi (r)}{dr} = -\frac 1 a_0 \psi (r), \frac d{dr} \biggl(r^2 \frac {d\psi (r)}{dr} \biggr) = -\frac 1 {a_0}\frac d {dr} \bigl[r^2 \psi(r) \bigr] =...

I'm trying to solve a differential equation of the form $$\frac{A'(x)}{A(x)}f(x,y) = \frac{B'(y)}{B(y)}$$ where prime denotes differentiation. I know that for the case ##f(x,y) = \text{constant}## we just equal each side to a same constant. Can I do that also for the case where ##f(x,y)## is not...

How does one solve the partial differential equation Uxx+Uyy+Uzz=C when C is non-zero. Here U is a function of x,y and z where (x,y,z) lies in the ball centered at 0 of radius 1 and U=0 on the boundary. Uxx, Uyy and Uzz denote second partial derivatives with respect to x, y and z. Any hints on...

Suppose we displace the pendulum bob ##A## an angle ##\theta_0## initially, and let go. This is equivalent to giving it an initial horizontal displacement of ##X## and an initial vertical displacement of ##Y##. Let ##Y## initially be a negative number, and ##X## initially be positive. I observe...

I let ##M = 4xy + 1## and ##N = 2x^2 + \cos{(y)}##. Since ##\frac{\partial M}{\partial y} = \frac{\partial N}{\partial x}##, the equation is exact and we have $$\frac{\partial f(x,y)}{\partial x} = 4xy + 1$$ From inspection, you can tell this has to lead to $$f(x,y) = 2x^2 y + x + h(y)$$ and we...

The formula for general oscillation is: The formula for underdamping oscillation is: where λ = -γ +- sqart(γ^2 - ω^2), whereas A+ and A- , as well as λ+ and λ-, are complex conjugates of each other. After some operations, we get: x(t) = Ae^(-γx)[e^i(θ+ωx) +e^-i(θ+ωx)], where A is the modulus...

Let $f:\mathbb R\to \mathbb R$ be a twice-differentiable function such that $f(x)+f^{\prime\prime}(x)=-x|\sin(x)|f'(x)$ for $x\geq 0$. Assume that $f(0)=-3$ and $f'(0)=4$. Then what is the maximum value that $f$ achieves on the positive real line? a) 4 b) 3 c) 5 d) Maximum value does not exist...

I am trying to reproduce the results of a thesis that is 22 years old and I'm a bit stuck at solving the differential equations. Let's say you have the following equation $$\frac{\partial{\phi}}{\partial{t}}=f(\phi(r))\frac{{\nabla_x}^2{\nabla_y}^2}{{\nabla}^2}g(\phi(r))$$ where ##\phi,g,f## are...

I need to solve ∂2Φ/∂s2 + (1/s)*∂Φ/ds - C = 0 Where s is a radial coordinate and C is a constant. I know this is fairly simple but I haven't had to solve a problem like this in a long time. Can someone advise me on how to begin working towards a general solution? Is the method of...

From solving the characteristic equations, I got that ##\lambda = 0.5 \pm 1.5i##. Since using either value yields the same answer, let ##\lambda = 0.5 - 1.5i##. Then from solving the system for the eigenvector, I get that the eigenvector is ##{i}\choose{1.5}##. Hence the complex solution is...

I tried to derive this by myself but I'm stuck. What i did it to substitute a_{1} with a_{1} +\Delta a_{1} in the first equation, getting: (a_{1}+\Delta a_{1})\dot{y}(t)+y(t)=b_{0}u(t)+b_{1}\dot{u}(t) and trying to subtract a_{1}\dot{y}(t)+y(t)=b_{0}u(t)+b_{1}\dot{u}(t) to it. But it's not...

I'm having a hard time grasping the concept of reducing the two recursive relations at the end of the frobenius method. For example, 2xy''+y'+y=0 after going through all the math i get y1(x) = C1[1-x+1/6*x^2-1/90*x^3+...] y2(x) = C2x^1/2[1-1/3*x+1/30*x^2-1/630*x^3+...] I know those are right...

I wish to know if there is a method to work out x(t). [No matter which form f(t) is] Thank you~

on introducing a term on both sides, we have ##(x^2+xy-2xy)y^{'}=x^2+y^2-2xy## ##(x^2-xy)y^{'}=(x-y)^2## ##x(x-y)y^{'}=(x-y)^2## ##xy^{'}=(x-y)## ##y^{'}=1-y/x## ## v+x v^{'}=1-v## ...ok are the steps correct before i continue?

So this is what I have done: ##f'(t)=k*f(t)*(A-f(t))*(1-sin(\frac{pi*x}{12}))## ##\frac{1}{f(t)*(A-f(t))}=k*(1-sin(\frac{pi*x}{12}))## I see that the left can be written as this (using partial fractions): ##1/A(\frac{1}{f(t)}-\frac{1}{A-f(t)})## And then I take the integral on both sides and...

If we take a flat universe dominated by radiation, the scale factor is ##a(t)=t^{1/2}## which can be derived from the first Friedmann Equation:$$(\dot a/a)^2 = \frac{8\pi G}{3c^2}\varepsilon(t)-\frac{kc^2}{R_0^2 a(t)^2}$$ But suppose I want to show this using the second Friedmann Equation (Also...

Hi all. I have another exam question that I am not so sure about. I've solved similar problems in textbooks but I have a feeling once again that the correct way to solve this problem is much simpler and eluding me. Especially because my answer to a) is already the solution to c) and d) (I did...

The ODE is: \begin{equation} (y'(x)^2 - z'(x)^2) + 2m^2( y(x)^2 - z(x)^2) = 0 \end{equation} Where y(x) and z(x) are real unknown functions of x, m is a constant. I believe there are complex solutions, as well as the trivial case z(x) = y(x) = 0 , but I cannot find any real solutions. Are...

I started by substituting the following anzatz: $$ \psi = \psi_e + \psi_1 $$ When ## |\psi_1| \ll 1 ##. Substituting the above into the equation yields: $$ \frac {d\psi_1} {dt} = -(1 + i\alpha)\psi_1 + \frac i 2 \frac {\partial ^ 2 \psi _1 } {\partial x ^ 2 } + i (\bar \psi_1 \psi_1 ^2 + \bar...
