Homogeneous System of Three Coupled, First-Order, Linear Differential Equations
Requires a Wolfram Notebook System
Interact on desktop, mobile and cloud with the free Wolfram Player or other Wolfram Language products.
This Demonstration calculates the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a linear homogeneous system and finds the constant coefficients of the system for a particular solution. The sliders let you vary the initial conditions.
