Homework Statement



dx(t)/dt = N0*sin(omega*t) * x(t) - ( N0*x^2 / k )

Omega,N0 and k are positive .

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution


I tried to solve it using the Bernoulli equations but I could not get the last result.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The result that I got is :

exp( (cos(omega*t) * (-N0/omega)) / x(t) = (N0 / k) * ( integral (exp( (cos(omega*t)) * (-N0/omega) ) ) ) dt

So I do not know how to find the integral when typically there is no specific solution for the integral of the Exponential function.
 
You may just have to express the result in terms of unevaluated integrals. Integrals of the form ##\int e^{\frac 1 \omega \cos(\omega t)}~dt## don't have elementary antiderivatives.
