By using Laplace transforms, solve the following differential equations subject to the given initial conditions.
,
when .
In Problem 33 to 38, solve the given differential equations by using the principle of superposition [see the solution of equation (6.29)]. For example, in Problem 33, solve three differential equations with right-hand sides equal to the three different brackets. Note that terms with the same exponential factor are kept together; thus, a polynomial of any degree is kept together in one bracket.
when .
(a) Show that , and so on; that is, for any positive integral ,
Thus, show that ifis any polynomial in the operator , then .
This is called the exponential shift.
(b) Use to show that .
(c) Replace by , to obtain
This is called the inverse exponential shift.
(d) Using (c), we can change a differential equation whose right-hand side is an exponential times a
polynomial, to one whose right-hand side is just a polynomial. For example, consider
; multiplying both sides by and using (c), we get
Show that a solution of is ; then or use this method to solve Problems 23 to 26.
