Finding analytical solution for -k*y^0.5: eulers integration

[bamptom]

Hi guys,

Im doing a matlab course i need to prove my programs eulers integration by analytically solving the problem also.

Can anyone point me in the right direction.

The problem is-

-k*y^0.5

Thanks in advance

Re: Finding analytical solution

if you mean the differential equation ...

\(\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = -k\sqrt{y}\)

separate variables ...

\(\displaystyle \frac{dy}{\sqrt{y}} = -k \, dx\)

now do the integration.
