This lab document introduces the dfield7 tool in Matlab for investigating and visualizing solutions to first order differential equations. Students are instructed on how to use dfield7 to plot direction fields and solution curves for different equations. They are then given 5 problems to solve using dfield7, estimating solutions to initial value problems for various differential equations by placing points on the graphs or entering values numerically. The document concludes by noting dfield7 can quickly solve first order DEs and hints that future labs will cover higher order and systems of DEs.

Write solution for these problems
-Is targeting only mommy bloggers is a good idea and why?
-how would J&J guarantee that these bloggers won't give a bad feedback?
-if J&J announced about their product only through social media, then how would it reach the other people who don't use social media?
-do you see any value in offering this type of incentive for the users? or, is all the benefit for the company only?

Lab1
1. Lab 1: Graphical Solutions to First Order Differential
Equations
Goals
In this lab you will study differential equations and their initial-value problems with the help
of dfield7, a useful tool for investigating direction fields and solution curves of differential
equations. With dfield7 or similar programs, it is easy to get qualitative information about
the solutions of a differential equation. Moreover, with a little practice it is also possible
to use dfield7 or similar programs to get quantitative information about the solution of
initial-value problems for differential equations.
Using Matlab with dfield7
After logging on to the Macintosh system in the Instructional Computer Labs located in the
basement of East Hall, launch Matlab by clicking on the corresponding icon in the dock. As
Matlab starts up, a logo and 3D graph resembling the icon will show up and eventually a
window will open with the Matlab prompt. (It is >>). In Windows or other environments
the procedure for starting Matlab may be different.
To begin this lab, type dfield7 in the Command Window and hit return. A window
with the title DFIELD7 Setup opens with lots of little boxes all filled in; ignore them for now
and click on the Proceed button. You will then see a graph with a direction field entitled
x = x2 − t. Now put the cursor on the point (2,1) and click. Now you know what the
solution to the differential equation x = x2 − t with initial condition x(2) = 1 looks like.
Click somewhere else on the graph (that is, try another initial condition). Fool around a bit.
Convince yourself that solution curves do not cross. (Why not?) If the picture gets crowded
you can erase the picture by going to the Edit menu on the DFIELD7 Display window.
Lab problems
1. Let y(t) be the solution curve to the differential equation y = sin(y + t) with initial
condition y(0) = 0. What is y(5)? A rough estimate is good enough.
Answer: y(5) ≈
Note: to do this problem you will have to click on the DFIELD7 Setup window and
change the differential equation.
1
2. 2. Let y(t) be the solution to the differential equation y = sin(y +t) with initial condition
y(20) = 0. What is y(25)? A rough estimate is good enough.
Answer: y(25) ≈
Note: to do this problem you will have to click on the DFIELD7 Setup window and
change the minimum and maximum value of t.
3. Let y(x) be the solution to the differential equation y = sin(xy) with initial condition
y(0) = 0.1. What is y(2)? A rough estimate is good enough.
Answer: y(2) ≈
Note: to do this problem you will have to click on the DFIELD7 Setup window and
change the equation and also change the name of the independent variable. If you
got an error message it may be because xy is written as x*y in Matlab; re-type the
equation and try again.
4. Let x(t) be the solution curve to the differential equation x = (x2 − 1) sin(xt). Note
that in Matlab, x2 is typed x^2 so you would enter x’=(x^2-1)*sin(x*t).
(a) If the initial condition is x(0) = 1.01 find both x(2) and x(−2).
Answer: x(2) ≈ and x(−2) ≈
(b) Repeat part (a) but with x(0) = 1.001.
Answer: x(2) ≈ and x(−2) ≈
(c) Repeat part (a) but with x(0) = 1.00001.
Answer: x(2) ≈ and x(−2) ≈
(d) Repeat part (a) but with x(0) = 1.
Answer: x(2) ≈ and x(−2) ≈
(e) Repeat part (a) but with x(0) = 0.99.
Answer: x(2) ≈ and x(−2) ≈
How do you solve these problems? You really cannot position the cursor on the graph
to 5 decimal place accuracy even if you are steady-handed. However, if you go to the
Options menu on the DFIELD7 Display window and choose Keyboard input you can enter
the initial condition accurately. Of course, you must also choose appropriate ranges for
your variables in the DFIELD7 Setup window. In some problems it doesn’t make too
2
3. much difference in the final answer if your hand shakes a bit. In others it does. Can
you look at the direction field and tell—in advance—which questions you can answer
confidently and which are more sensitive?
5. Let y(x) be the solution to the differential equation y = y 2 cos(xy) with initial condi-
tion y(0) = 1.217. To 3 decimal place accuracy what is y(1)?
Answer: y(1) ≈
Note: to do this problem you will have to click on the Edit menu on the DFIELD7
Display window and choose Zoom in; then use the mouse with the button depressed to
draw a rectangle you want to enlarge. You can repeat the procedure on the new graph
if you need to.
If you have time, you can experiment with some of the other buttons and settings. For
example, you can write some text on the graph or plot the direction field with arrows or
remove the lines. You can also change the numerical method used; we will study different
numerical methods in class, and in Labs 2 and 3.
This concludes Lab 1. If you need to solve a first order differential equation quickly
you can do it with the help of Matlab using dfield7. What about higher-order differential
equations? Systems? Stay tuned!
Note: for this lab, your lab report should simply consist of your own solutions
to the problems above and a brief, original, conclusions paragraph.
