1. Consider the following autonomous 2D system of DE’s:

x0 = x(4 − αx − 2y),

y 0 = 2y(−3 + x),
where α > 0.
(3 pt) a) For what values of α there is a critical point in the interior of the first quadrant
(where x, y > 0)?

Suppose that α = 1 in the following questions.

(2 pt) b) Find and sketch the nullclines of this system in positive (x, y). The x-nullcline is
where x0 = 0. The y-nullcline is where y 0 = 0.
c) Determine the critical points.
(2 pt)

(7 pt) d) For each critical point find the corresponding linear system. Classify each criti-
cal point as to type, and determine whether it is asymptotically stable, stable, or
unstable.
(2 pt) e) Sketch trajectories in the neighborhood of the critical point which is in the interior
of the first quadrant (where x, y > 0).
2. a) Match the following DE with the direction field. Explain why.
(6 pt)
(a) y 0 = (1 − y)(y − 2)2

(b) y 0 = (1 − y)[(y − 2)2 + 0.1]


(c) y 0 = (1 − y)[(y − 2)2 − 0.1]

(ii) (iii)
b) Classify the equilibrium solutions (critical points) of:
(2 pt)
y 0 = (1 − y)(y − 2)2

as either stable, unstable or metastable/semistable.

(2 pt) c) What range of initial conditions results in solutions with t → ∞, y(t) → 1? What

6. a) Consider a spring-mass system without external force and friction described by
(3 pt)
mx00 + kx = 0,

with mass m > 0, spring constant k > 0, and x(t) is the deviation of the mass from
its equilibrium position. Suppose the spring constant is k = 8 and the spring is
oscillating with frequency of 2 hertz (i.e. 2 full periods per second). Determine the
mass m of the spring.

(5 pt) b) Consider a spring-mass system described by the initial value problem

x00 + cx0 + 9x = cos(3t), x(0) = 0, x0 (0) = 2. (3)

(the part of the solution which remains as t → ∞) of this problem, and find its
amplitude as a function of c. Do not find the transient part.
(2 pt) c) Let A(c) denote the maximum amplitude of the steady state solutions of the systems

x00 + cx0 + 9x = cos(ωt), x(0) = 0, x0 (0) = 2.

among all possible ω > 0. What happens to A(c) as c → 0+ ? Explain why.

a general bounded and continuous function h(t):
