Short Answer

solve the given initial value problem using the method of Laplace transforms. Sketch the graph of the solution.y''+y=t--(t--4)u(t--2);y(0)=0,y'(0)=1

On solving the given initial value problem using the method of Laplace transforms the solution is y(t)=t-(t-4+2cos(t-2)-sin(t-2))u(t-2)and the graph is

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Definition

The Laplace transform, is an integral transform that converts a function of a real variable usually t, the time domain to a function of a complex variable s.

Step 2: Applying Laplace transform and using its linearity  

Ly''+y=L{t-(t-4)u(t-2)}Ly''+L{y}=L{t}-L{(t-4)u(t-2)}

s2Y(s)-sy(0)-y(0)+Y(s)=1s2-L{(t-4)u(t-2)}s2Y(s)-1+Y(s)=1s2-L{(t-4)u(t-2)}

Since,

L{(t-4)u(t-2)}=e-2sL{t-2}=e-2s(L{t}-2L{1})=e-2s1s2-2s

We have that,

s2+1Y(s)=1s2-e-2s1s2-2s+1s2+1Y(s)=1+s2s2-e-2s1-2ss2Y(s)=1s2-e-2s1-2ss2s2+1

Using partial fractions we get,

1-2ss2s2+1=1s2-2s+2s-1s2+1

And inverse Laplace transform gives,

L-1e-2ss2=(t-2)u(t-2)L-12e-2ss=2u(t-2)

2L-12e-2sss2+1=2cos(t-2)u(t-2)L-1e-2ss2+1=sin(t-2)u(t-2)

Step 3: The solution of given IVP

y(t)=L-11s2-e-2s1-2ss2s2+1=L-11s2-L-1e-2ss2-2e-2ss+2e-2sss2+1-e-2ss2+1=t-((t-2)u(t-2)-2u(t-2)+2cos(t-2)u(t-2)-sin(t-2)u(t-2))=t-(t-4+2cos(t-2)-sin(t-2))u(t-2)

Hence, y(t)=t-(t-4+2cos(t-2)-sin(t-2))u(t-2)

and the graph is
