2.II.7B
The Cartesian coordinates of a point moving in are governed by the system
Transform this system of equations to polar coordinates and hence find all periodic solutions (i.e., closed trajectories) which satisfy constant.
Discuss the large time behaviour of an arbitrary solution starting at initial point . Summarize the motion using a phase plane diagram, and comment on the nature of any critical points.
