ESci 116n ProblemSet01 (TFS)

This document is a problem set for a differential equations course. It contains 5 problems regarding classifying and solving different types of differential equations. Students are reminded to complete the work independently and with academic honesty. The problems cover skills like determining the type and order of differential equations, identifying if functions satisfy given equations, finding constants to satisfy boundary/initial conditions, deriving differential equations from families of curves, and more.

REMINDERS

You are reminded to work this problem set independently. As future engineers, I advise you
to practice the provisions of the Preamble for Engineers and I quote: ”Engineering is an
important and learned profession. As members of this profession, you are expected to exhibit
the highest standards of honesty and integrity. Engineering has a direct and vital impact on
the quality of life for all people. Accordingly, the services provided by engineers require
honesty, impartiality, fairness and equity and must be dedicated to the protection of the public
health, safety and welfare. Engineers must perform under a standard of professional behavior
that requires adherence to the highest principles of ethical conduct.”
