A differential equation of the form
The solution is found by antidifferentiating each side with
respect to its thusly isolated variable.

If y is a differentiable function of t such that y>0 and
y’=kt, for some constant k, then
where C = initial value of y, and
k = constant of proportionality

Continuously Compounded Interest
If the interest is added continuously at a rate proportional
to the amount in the account, you can model the growth of
the account with the initial value problem:

annual interest. How much will you have 4 years later if
the interest is (a) compounded continuously? (b) compounded

Newton’s Law of Cooling
The rate at which an object's temerature is changing at any
given time is roughly proportional to the difference between
its temperature and the temperature of the surrounding medium.
If T is the temperature of the object at time t , and T is the
S
surrounding temperature, then

  k T  T  .

Since dT  d (T - T ), rewrite (1)

Example Using Newton’s Law of Cooling
A temperature probe is removed from a cup of coffee and placed in water that
has a temperature of T = 4.5 C.
Temperature readings T, as recorded in the table below, are taken
after 2 sec, 5 sec, and every 5 sec thereafter.

Example Using Newton’s Law of Cooling
Use time for L1 and T-Ts for L2 to fit an exponential regression
equation to the data. This formula is T-Ts.

 Resistance Proportional to Velocity
It is reasonable to assume that, other forces being absent,
the resistance encountered by a moving object, such as a
car coasting to a stop, is proportional to the object’s
velocity.
 The resisting force opposing the motion is
Force = mass  acceleration = m
dv
.

 We can express that the resisting force is proportional to
velocity by writing
