Q2) Find the general solution of the system :
d^2y/dt^2 + 3 dy/dt + 5y = diracdelta4 (t) ,
y(0)=2 and y'(0) =1
Explanation / Answer
A) The x-nullcline are given by dx/dt=0 => x=0 or -x-y+4=0
The y-nullcline are given by dy/dt=0 => y=0 or -2y-x+3=0
Clearly the points of intersection between x-nullcline and y-nullcline are exactly the equilibrium points.
