1. Question
(a) Determine, whether the following statement is true or false:
For every y 0 2 R, there is an open interval I ✓ R with 0 2 I and a
unique solution y : I ! R of initial value problem
y 0 =
p
1 ? y 2 , y(0) = y 0 .
Support your answer with a short argument!!
(b) Find the general solution of the homogeneous equation
Ly := (x 2 + 1)y 0 + xy = 0 (1)
(c) Use the method of variation of constants to find the general solution of the
inhomogeneous equation Ly = x with L defined by (1).
(d) Find the unique solution y of initial value problem
(x 2 + 1)y 0 + xy = x, y(0) = 3
and give the maximal solution interval I max ✓ R.
2. Question
(a) Use the method of reduction of order to find the general solution of the
2nd-order di↵erential equations
4t 2 y 00 + 8ty 0 + y = 0 on (0,+1)
given that y 1 (t) = t ?1/2 is a solution.
(b) Find the unique solution of the initial value problem
(
Ly := y 000 + y 00 + y 0 + y = 2(cosx ? sinx) on R,
y(0) = 1, y 0 (0) = ?1, y 00 (0) = ?2.
Hint: y p (x) := xsinx is a particular solution of Ly = 2(cosx ? sinx).

3. Question
(a) Let F be the vector field given by
F = e x+y sinz i + e x+y sinzj + e x+y cosz k.
(i) Decide whether F is conservative or not. Support your statement with
a short proof.
(ii) Calculate the work done by the force F along the path C given by the
parametrization ↵(t) = sin3ti + tj + cos3tk for t 2 [0,2⇡/3].
(b) After a very tragic burn of a famous cathedral in Paris, the roof of one of
the towers of this cathedral needs to be retiled. The roof has the shape of
the upper part of the paraboloid x 2 + y 2 + z = 4 which sits on the top of
a cylindrical tower of radius r = 1. Thus, the projection of the roof on the
(xy)-plane is the unit disc x 2 + y 2 1. The costs of tiling is $2z + 15 per
square meter. What is the total cost of retiling the roof of this tower?
(c) Calculate the flux of the vector field F = 2xi + xy 2 j outward across the
curve C running in anti-clockwise direction along straigtlines from (0,?1) to
(1,0), from (1,0) to (0,1), and from (0,1) to (0,?1), forming a triangle.
(d) A function f : B ! R defined on the closed unit ball B := {(x,y,z)|x 2 +
y 2 + z 2 1} in R 3 satisfies the following properties:
(i) f(x,y,z) > 0 for every (x,y,z) 2 B,
(ii) ||rf(x,y,z)|| 2 = 8f(x,y,z) for every (x,y,z) 2 B,
(iii) r ·
⇣
f(x,y,z)rf(x,y,z)
⌘
= 17f(x,y,z) for every (x,y,z) 2 B.
Use these three properties to calculate the flux of the vector field F := rf
across the boundary of the unit ball B.
