Interpretation:
To find fixed points, draw nullclines,
Concept Introduction:
Fixed point of a differential equation is a point where
Nullclines are the curves where either
Vector fields in this aspect represent the direction of flow and whether flow is going away from fixed point or coming towards it.
Phase portraits represent the trajectories of the system with respect to the parameters and give qualitative idea about evolution of the system, its fixed points, and whether they will attract or repel the flow etc.

- Reproduce the given computer-generated direction field. Then sketch an approximate solution curve that passes through each of the indicated points. dy dx = (sin(x))cos(y) (a) y(0) = 1 (b) y(1) = 0arrow_forwardConsider the rotational velocity field v = ⟨0, 10z, -10y⟩ .
