Phase Plane Analysis and Stability of Critical Points

MATH2100 - Applied Mathematical Analysis Final Examination, Semester 2, 2014 1. (a) (16 marks) Sketch the trajectories of the following system in the phase plane, indicating the direction of flow, and classify the type and stability of the critical point at the origin. (%) = ( 3 2 ) (3) State the equation of any straight line trajectories and find the equation of the straight lines where the tangent to the trajectories is horizontal or vertical.
