    How Do You Solve This Tricky Differential Equation Problem?

    I did a bit of simplification, but I may have done something wrong in between: \int -csc(u)du = -ln|csc(u) - cot(u)| = ln|csc(2t) - cot(2t)| =-ln|\frac{csc(2t)}{cot(2t)}| = -ln|\frac{1}{sin(2t)}*\frac{sin(2t)}{cos(2t)}| = -ln|sec(2t)| = ln|sec(2t)|^-1 = ln|cos(2t)| When...

    Need Help With a Separable Differential Equation

    That's a neat trick. So basically, my equation ln|t| = ln|\frac{y-1}{y}| + c turns into ln|t| + b = ln|\frac{y-1}{y}| with b = -c Then ln|t| + b can be thought of as ln|t| + ln|C|, which is then ln|Ct|. If I'm getting the logic right. Nice. Thanks for the tip.

    How Do You Solve This Tricky Differential Equation Problem?

    Homework Statement y'sin(2t) = 2(y+cos(t)) y(\frac{∏}{4}) = 0 Homework Equations \frac{dy}{dx} + p(x)y = q(x) y = \frac{\int u(x) q(x) dx + C}{u(x)} where u(x) = exp(\int p(x)dx) The Attempt at a Solution I've set the equation in the form above, simplified the RHS and solved for...

    Need Help With a Separable Differential Equation

    Good point that my answer isn't even defined there. I end up with: ln|t| = ln|\frac{y-1}{y}| + c c ends up being 0 with the initial value, so that simplifies to: |t| = |\frac{y-1}{y}| I suppose here is where I need to look at t equal to the positive or negative value of the...

    Need Help With a Separable Differential Equation

    Hello. I need some help solving a differential equation. I think where I'm going wrong is integrating one side via partial fractions, but I'm not quite sure where my mistake is. Using Wolfram, I found the correct answer, which is below. Thanks. Homework Statement Solve the following initial...

    Diamond Circuit, Three EMF Sources -- Parallel?

    Great, thanks for the welcome and the quick answer! I'm a longtime lurker but finally found a question to ask that wasn't already answered.

    Diamond Circuit, Three EMF Sources -- Parallel?

    Hi, Is the circuit in the attached image essentially one with three parallel branches, each with a different source of emf and two resistors? ie, ε1, R1, R2 on one branch, ε2, R3, R4 on another, and similarly for the last one? Thanks!
