Example Let x(t) denote the temperature of a body with initial temperature x(0) = x0. At t = 0 this body is immersed in a medium with constant temperature A. Assuming Newton’s law of cooling, dx dt = −k(x−A) (k > 0 constant) x(t) = A+ (x0 −A)e −kt It follows immediately that lim t→∞ x(t) = A. So the temperature of the body approaches that of the surrounding medium

Definition f网 dx (1) is an autonomous first-order differential equation-one in which the independent variable t does not appear explicitly.The solu- tions of the equation f(x)=0 are called critical points of(1). Ifx=c is a critical point of(1),the constant solution x=c of a differential equation is called an equilibrium solution. 4口0y至无2000
Definition dx dt = f(x) (1) is an autonomous first-order differential equation-one in which the independent variable t does not appear explicitly. The solutions of the equation f(x) = 0 are called critical points of (1). If x = c is a critical point of (1), the constant solution x = c of a differential equation is called an equilibrium solution
Stability of Critical Points Definition A critical point x=c of an autonomous first-order equation is said to be stable provided that,if the initial value xo is suffi- ciently close to c,thenx(t)remains close to c for all t>0.More precisely,the critical point c is stable if,for each e>0,there existsδ>0 such that lxo-cl0.The critical point x=c is unstable if it is not stable. 4口0y至无2000
Stability of Critical Points Definition A critical point x = c of an autonomous first-order equation is said to be stable provided that, if the initial value x0 is suffi- ciently close to c, then x(t) remains close to c for all t > 0. More precisely, the critical point c is stable if, for each ε > 0, there exists δ > 0 such that |x0 −c| 0. The critical point x = c is unstable if it is not stable
