1.1.45 Suppose a population P of rodents satisfies the differential equationdP/dt = kP2. Initially, there are P(0) = 2 rodents, and their numberis increasing at the rate of dP/cIt = 1 rodent per month when thereare P = 10 rodents. How long will it take for this population to growto a hundred rodents? To a thousand? What’s happening here?

1.2.43 Arthur Clark’s The Windfrom the Sun (1963) describes Diana, a spacecraft propelled by the solar wind. Its aluminized sail provides it witha constant acceleration of O.OOlg = O.0098m/s2.Suppose this spacecraft starts from rest at time t = 0 and simultaneously fires a projectile (straight ahead in the same direction) that travels at one-tenth ofthe speed c = 3 x 108m/s of light. How long will it take the spacecraftto catch up with the projectile, and how far will it have traveled bythen?

1.3.29 Verify that if c is a constant, then the function defined piecewise by

1 0 x<c,(x—c)3 >c

satisfies the differential equation y’ 3y for all x. Can you alsouse the “left half” of the cubic y = (x — c)3 in piecing together asolution curve of the differential equation? Sketch a variety of suchsolution curves. Is there a point (a, b) of the xy-plane such that theinitial value problem y’ = 3y, y(a) = b has either no solution or aunique solution that is defined for all x? Reconcile your answer withTheorem 1.
