Test #3 (100 points): Chapter 7

General Instructions:

§  No calculator is permitted on today’s test.

§  Simplification is required only where stated.

§  Final answers must be circled in order to earn full credit. Units are required when appropriate.

§  Keep your eyes on your own paper. Exceptions may result in immediate loss of your paper.

§  Show your work. Work is required for credit in each problem.

 

 

Part I. Definitions

Define each term. Each definition must begin with the appropriate part of speech (noun, adjective, etc.). Circular definitions will earn no credit.

 

1.

particular solution of a diff. eq.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.

separable (in connection with diff. eqs.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.

chaos

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4.

second-order differential equation

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5.

slope field


 

 

Part II. Free Response

 

 

6.

Sketch the slope field (using the lattice points on [–3, 3]  [–3, 3]) for the diffeq.  Label your axes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7.

On the slope field you sketched in #6, sketch the solution having initial condition (1, 2.5).

 

 

8.

Is the diff. eq. in #6 separable? (Yes or no.) __________

 

 

9.

Find 3 different initial conditions for #6, all using exactly the same value of t, and having y values that vary by less than 0.000001=10–6, such that the 3 initial conditions give rise to 3 completely different behaviors. Simply state your ordered pairs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

10.

Prove, rigorously, that there exists a unique solution to the diff. eq. in #6 that is a straight line. (Hint: Any line, wlog, must have the property that the rate of change of its slope equals 0.)
