Solving First-order Linear ODE's; Steady-state and Transient Solutions
In this lesson, the focus is on solving first-order linear ODEs and understanding steady-state and transient solutions. The first-order linear ODE is a common model that occurs frequently in various applications and can always be solved. The lecture includes examples of two such models: the conduction model and diffusion model, which are both represented by the same equation with different variables. By the end of the lesson, students will learn the importance of the first-order linear equation and the standard form for solving it.

Staff Review
In this video, you will learn the second-most important method of solving differential equations after separation of variables, the first-order linear equation. Some real-world differential equation problems are also discussed. A critical lesson to this course.
