\n

Find the solutions of the following ordinary differential equations satisfying the condition $y=1$ at $x=2$.

\n

You may find it instructive to sketch your various solutions (but this is not required for this CBA).

", "advice": "\n

These are all separable first order differential equations.

\n

a)

\n

$\\displaystyle{\\frac{dy}{dx}=\\frac{y}{\\var{a1}x} \\Rightarrow \\int \\frac{1}{y}\\;dy = \\frac{1}{\\var{a1}}\\int\\frac{1}{x}\\;dx \\Rightarrow \\ln(y)=\\frac{1}{\\var{a1}}\\ln(x)+C}$

\n

Exponentiation of both sides then gives $y=Ax^{1/\\var{a1}}$ where we have renamed the constant of integration.

\n

To find the particular solution satisfying $y=1$ at $x=2$, we have $\\displaystyle{1=A \\times 2^{1/\\var{a1}} \\Rightarrow A = \\frac{1}{2^{1/\\var{a1}}}}$

\n

Hence the solution is $\\displaystyle{y=\\left(\\frac{x}{2}\\right)^{1/\\var{a1}}}$

\n

b)

\n

$\\displaystyle{\\frac{dy}{dx}=-\\var{a2}\\frac{y}{x} \\Rightarrow \\int \\frac{1}{y}\\;dy = -\\var{a2}\\int\\frac{1}{x}\\;dx \\Rightarrow \\ln(y)=-\\var{a2}\\ln(x)+C}$

\n

Exponentiation of both sides then gives $y=Ax^{-\\var{a2}}$ where we have renamed the constant of integration.

\n

The particular solution satisfying $y=1$ at $x=2$, gives $A = 2^{\\var{a2}}$

\n

Hence the solution is $\\displaystyle{y=\\left(\\frac{2}{x}\\right)^{\\var{a2}}}$

\n

c)

\n

$\\displaystyle{\\frac{dy}{dx}=\\var{a3}\\frac{x}{y} \\Rightarrow \\int y\\;dy = \\var{a3}\\int x\\;dx \\Rightarrow \\frac{y^2}{2}=\\var{a3}\\frac{x^2}{2}+C\\Rightarrow y^2=\\var{a3}x^2+A}$

\n

The particular solution satisfying $y=1$ at $x=2$, gives $A = \\var{1-4*a3}$.

\n

Hence the solution is $\\displaystyle{y^2=\\simplify[std]{{a3}x^2+{1-4*a3}}}$.

\n

d)

\n

$\\displaystyle{\\frac{dy}{dx}=-\\var{a4}\\frac{x}{y} \\Rightarrow \\int y\\;dy = -\\var{a4}\\int x\\;dx \\Rightarrow y^2=-\\var{a4}x^2+A}$

\n

The particular solution satisfying $y=1$ at $x=2$, gives $A = \\var{1+4*a4}$.

\n

Hence the solution is $\\displaystyle{y^2=\\simplify[std]{{-a4}x^2+{1+4*a4}}}$.
