Abstract

Real life phenomenon which depict various systems are modeled by differential equation. These equations are used to explain different facets of systems that relatable in daily occurences. The first order differential equation are mostly used to explain this phenomenon. Different areas such as the Newton’s law of cooling, the Lotka-Voltera model, and population growth are some of the real life system modelled in this work. It is shown that all real life system can be modelled via differential equation to explain the importance of these equations.
