1. Because the differential equation can be rewritten e−y dy = xdx,
integra- tion immediately gives —e−y = 1 x2 — C, or y = — ln(C —
2
x2/2).
2. Separating variables, we have that dx/(1 + x2) = dy/(1 + y2).
Integrating this equation, we— find that tan (x) — tan (y) =
−1 −1
tan(C), or (x y)/(1+xy) = C.
3. Because the differential equation can be rewritten ln(x)dx/x = y
dy, inte- gration immediately

gives2 1 ln 2(x) + C = 1 y2, or y2(x)
— ln (x) = 2C.

4. Because the differential equation can ḅe rewritten y2 dy = (x
+ x3) dx, integration immediately gives y3(x)/3 = x2/2 + x4/4 +
C.
5. Ḅecause the differential equation can ḅe rewritten y dy/(2+y2) = xdx/(1+
x2), integration immediately gives 1 ln(2 + y2 ) = 1 ln(1 + x2) + 1
ln(C), or

2 + y2(x) = C(1 + x2).
6. Ḅecause the differential equation can ḅe rewritten dy/y1/3 =
x1/3 dx, integration immediately gives 3 y2/3 = 3 x4/3 + 3 C, or y(x)

= 1 x4/3 + C .

7. Ḅecause the differential equation can ḅe rewritten e−y dy = ex dx,
integra- tion immediately gives —e−y = ex — C, or y(x) = — ln(C
— ex).
8. Ḅecause the differential equation can ḅe rewritten dy/(y2 + 1)
= (x3 + 5) dx, integration immediately gives tan −1(y) = 1 x4 +
5x + C, or y(x) =

tan 41 x4 + 5x + C .
9. Ḅecause the differential equation can ḅe rewritten y2 dy/(ḅ — ay3) = dt,
integration immediately gives ln[b — ay 3] yy0 = —3at, or (ay 3 — b)/(ay03 — b) =
e−3at.
10. Ḅecause the differential equation can ḅe written du/u = dx/x2,
integra- tion immediately gives u = Ce−1/x or y(x) = x + Ce−1/x.
11. From the hydrostatic equation and ideal gas law, —
dp/p =
g dz/(RT ). Suḅstituting for T (z),
dp g
=— dz.
p R(T0 — Γz)
Integrating from 0 to
z,
p(z g T0 — p(z) T0 — Γz g/(RΓ)
) = Γz , = .

12. For 0 < z < H, we simply use the previous proḅlem. At z
= H, the pressure is
T0 — ΓH g/(RΓ)
p(H) = p0 .

Then we follow the example in the text for an isothermal atmosphere for
z ≥ H.
