Assignment 6

Note: this assignment is now complete.

Due 4th of March, 2014.

  • Read Sections 3.4 – 3.6
  • Read especially Section 3.5 example 5
  • Do the WeBWorK for Sections 3.4 – 3.6
  • Do these written problems:
    • Section 3.4 problems 11, 12, 16. Additional instructions: on 16, state explicitly what this “special” solution is, and discuss its long-term behavior.
    • Section 3.5 problems 5, 16, 19
    • Section 3.6 problems 3, 7, 13

edit: Let me clarify “special” above. The book asks you to find some critical value of \(b\). This value of \(b\) gives you an (one) IVP, and I call this IVP’s solution the “special solution”. So I want this solution, and its limit as \(t\to\infty\) .
