    Solving 2 differential equations

    dx/dt=ay and dy/dt=bx where x and y are function of t [x(t) and y(t)] and a and b are constant. 1) show what x and y satisfy the equation for a hyperbola: y^2-(b/a)*x^2=(y_0)^2-(b/a)*(x_0)^2 2) suppose at some time t_s, the point (x(t_s),y(t_s)) lies on the upper branch of hyperbola, show...

    If x goes very large, say infinite, what does this equation will look like

    when x goes very large, say infinite, what does this equation will look like? H is a constant 1) 1/(1+(x/H)^2)^(1/2)) 2) 1/(1+(H/x)^2)^(1/2)) The answers are 1) 1/x^2 2) 1/x But I am not too sure how to get there. Thank you

    Are These Vector and Matrix Operations Formulated Correctly?

    Is this correct? ∑_ j A_ji dot A_ij dot x_j = ∑_ i A_ij^T dot b_i ?

    How can I expand this term ∇∙(φuu)

    I found out that the solution for ∇∙(φuu) is φu∙∇u+u[∇∙(φu)] for this the solution is just seemed like ∇∙(φuu) is φu∙∇u+u[∇∙(φu)] ∇∙(AB) is A∙∇B+B[∇∙(A)] but I just can't fill in the step correctly in between and ∇∙(T×u) is -u×(∇∙T)+T

    Are These Vector and Matrix Operations Formulated Correctly?

    I want to make sure the way I am writing this A^T dot A dot x = A^T dot b in index notation correctly. Would you mind to do that one time for me so that I can match up with my answer? My answer was A^T dot A dot x = A^T dot b >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>...

    Are These Vector and Matrix Operations Formulated Correctly?

    w=∇×u Is this correct? w_i=ε_ijk ∂/(∂x_j ) u_k w and u are the vectors C=(x∙y)z Is this correct? C_i= ∑_i〖(x_i y_j)∙z_i 〗 C, x, y, z are vectors A^T∙A ∙x=A^T∙b Is this correct...

    How can div (u cross v) be proved using the product rule?

    Please show me the way the proof this! div (u cross v) = v dot grad (u)- u dot grad(v) where v and u is a vector. The product rule doesn't seem working

    Taylor Expansion for fm+1n+1 - Tips and Tricks

    I am doing the finite differencing for a pde and I am trying to expand the term f_m+1 with a superscript n+1 around say (f_m with a superscript n) to see whether or not the pde is consistent. For forward in time, a partial derivative of time (df/dt)will be rewrite as [(f_m with a superscript...
