Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To show that all vector fields on the line are a gradient system

Concept Introduction:

The system can be written in the form x˙= -V for some continuously differential, single-valued scalar function V(x). Such a system is called a gradient system with potential function V. V(x)

Closed orbit is impossible in the gradient system.
