ABSTRACT
Homogeneous first-order differential equations As was previously stated, differential equations play a prominent role in engineering, physics, economics, and other disciplines. Applications are many and varied; for example, they are involved in combined heat conduction and convection with the design of heating and cooling chambers, in fluid mechanics analysis, in heat transfer analysis, in kinematic analysis of rigid body dynamics, with exponential decay in radioactive material, Newton’s law of cooling and in mechanical oscillations. This chapter explains how to solve a particular type of differential equation – the homogeneous first-order type.
