Question:
(a) The solution of the differential equation
{2xy/(x2 + y2)2 [1 + (y2 – x2)/(x2 + y2)2]dy = 0
is a family of curves that can be interpreted as streamlines of a fluid flow around a circular object whose boundary is described by the equation x2 + y2 = 1. Solve this DE and note the solution f (x, y) = c for c = 0.
(b) Use a CAS to plot the streamlines for c = 0, ± 0.2, ±0.4, ±0.6, and ±0.8 in three different ways. First, use the contourplot of a CAS. Second, solve for x in terms of the variable y. Plot the resulting two functions of y for the given values of c, and then combine the graphs. Third, use the CAS to solve a cubic equation for y in terms of x.
