Coffee, Crime, Circle: What Is a Differential Equation?
Prof. Dr. Dirk Schieborn
Higher Mathematics 2 · Reutlingen University
A differential equation looks for a function of which you only know its derivative. Whether a suspect is the culprit is always decided by the check.

Coffee, Crime, Circle: What Is a Differential Equation?
Prof. Dr. Dirk SchiebornHigher Mathematics 2 · Reutlingen UniversityAn explainer film in five chapters, made from a real lecture: why the culprit in a differential equation is a function, where differential equations hide, from cooling coffee to hares and foxes, how to solve y′ = 5y by guessing and checking, why the whole family C · e⁵ˣ belongs to it, and why only circles fit y′ · y = −x. Pause anywhere and ask.
How a film works on heyprof
Every film here listens. Pause it, ask it questions and let it continue with your own examples.
- PauseTap pause or press the space bar. The film waits right at that moment.
- AskTap “Ask” and type what you want to know. The answer comes inside the film, with picture and voice.
- Steer itTell it what to show, for example “Do this with z = 2 − 3i”. The film sets up the app and works it out.
- Try it yourselfWhile it is paused, drag points and sliders yourself. “Continue” takes you back into the film.
Without an account: five questions per visit. With an account you can also ask by voice.
