    A constructive approach to Slope Fields and how they work. Individual exploration with a Computer Graphing application is highly recommended.

    Hello Professor, I'm a freshman in calc 3 and I've done quite poorly on my first exam... however upon reviewing the first 15 minutes of your Calc 3 videos it has helped a lot. I'm sure all your viewers including myself, would like you to know that we really appreciate what you're doing and this has really eased up my self-doubt, anxiety and feelings of depression from that score. Again, thank you :)

    Professor Leonard, thank you for an awesome introduction to Slope Fields in Ordinary Differential Equations. From watching this great video/lecture and doing problems from multiple Differential Equations books, I finally understand Slope Fields and their impact on Differential Equations. Mathematica is an exceptional software that can be used to draw Slope Fields.

    Would it be advantageous to have the X and Y axis labelled the same on both the table and the graph?
    (That way you can draw the slope lines along the same diagonal as the values in the table.)

  • @taekwondotime
    @taekwondotime Před 5 lety +1

    What if it's NOT a 1st order differential equation?
    Do we have to be able to rework it into a 1st order DE to be able to use slope fields?
    Ex: y'' = x^2 + 2y^2

  • @chriscockrell9495
    @chriscockrell9495 Před 4 lety +1

    Interesting. Slope fields were not covered when I took diff eq at NIC. I'll have to pull out my textbook and see if it is there and we skipped working problems. I was looking at control theory for stability in the electric power grid and came across bifurcation theory. This video seemed a good starting point.

    01:30 How can we tell whether a differential equation cannot be solved because we don't know the right technique yet, or it cannot be solved because there is no solution possible whatsoever? Are there any differential equations with no possible solutions? How can one prove then that that's the case for a particular differential equation? How about equations that do have solutions, but those solutions are some crazy functions that are not made of any functions that we know of, and we're just lacking that one special crazy function that solves it? Are there any methods to find the "domain of functions" that might possibly be the solutions to a differential equation?

    • @wnooristany539
      @wnooristany539 Před rokem

      I think its because some differential equations cannot be integrated based on the techniques we learned in calc 2(which is why we have to use things like taylor seres to approximate the integrations)

    @parkermilligan7503 Před 4 lety

    How is this different from constructing direction fields for a given differential equation that only has one variable. For example, consider the differential equation y' = y(4 - y), where y' = dy/dt.

    • @TechSpeaker-ih1yz
      @TechSpeaker-ih1yz Před 3 měsíci

      Bit late, but if anyone else is wondering, the only difference is that you need to use just one variale to determine the slope. in your example equation, the slope will be the same for any particular y for all x.
