Expert verified

The solution of the given initial value problemt2y''(t)-4ty'(t)+4y(t)=0;y(1)=-2, â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰y'(1)=-11is y=-3t4+t.

Step by step solution

01

Substitute the values.

Given differential equation ist2y''(t)-4ty'(t)+4y(t)=0

Assume y=tr, then we have;

y'=rtr-1y''=r(r-1)tr-2

Substitute these equations in the differential equation;

t2r(r-1)tr-2-4trtr-1+4tr=0(r(r-1)-4r+4)tt=0r2-5r+4=0

The auxiliary equation is r2−5r+4=0.

02

Finding the roots of the auxiliary equation. 

Find the roots of this equation:

r=5±52-4×4×12×1r=5±25-162r=5±92r=5±32r=4,1

Hence, the general solution isy=c1t4+c2t1.

03

Finding the values of c1,c2

Using the given initial conditions;

y(1)=c1(1)4+c2(1)−2=c1+c2c1+c2=−2 â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€¦(1)

And we have y'(t)=4c1t3+c2then:

y'(1)=4c1(1)3+c24c1+c2=-11 â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â€¦(2)

Subtract (2) from (1), we get:

3c1=-9 â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰c1=-3

Therefore,

c2=1

Thus, the solution isy=-3t4+t.

Discontinuous Forcing Term. In certain physical models, the nonhomogeneous term, or forcing term, g(t) in the equation

ay''+by'+cy=g(t)

may not be continuous but may have a jump discontinuity. If this occurs, we can still obtain a reasonable solution using the following procedure. Consider the initial value problem;

y''+2y'+5y=g(t); â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰y(0)=0, â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰y'(0)=0

Where,

g(t)=10, â¶Ä‰if 0≤t≤3Ï€20, â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰if t>3Ï€2

  1. Find a solution to the initial value problem for 0≤t≤3π2 .
  2. Find a general solution fort>3Ï€2.
  3. Now choose the constants in the general solution from part (b) so that the solution from part (a) and the solution from part (b) agree, together with their first derivatives, att=3Ï€2 . This gives us a continuously differentiable function that satisfies the differential equation except at t=3Ï€2.
