Homework Help: Require help for the solution of second order differential equation.

From where did that equation came from! its like a monster ;) no if i find an operative way of solving it i tell you

 

Just to be sure:

[tex]\frac{\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}}{[\,( 1\,+\,(\frac{dy}{dx})^2 )^{3/2}\,]} + \frac{\frac{dy}{dx}}{[\,x\,( 1\,+\,(\frac{dy}{dx})^2 )^{1/2}\,] }\;{-\,y} = 0 [/tex]

where

[tex] \frac{dy}{dx} = tan \theta\;at\;x = x_o [/tex]

and

[tex] \frac{dy}{dx} \rightarrow 0\; and\;y = 0\;as\;x \rightarrow \infty [/tex]

 

You're welcome :)

 

I´m not much versed in numeric methos so here I can't help you. Sorry ;)
