Document Summary

Now, we will be looking at second order differential equations of the form (cid:1853) +(cid:1854) (cid:1855)= (cid:4666)(cid:1872)(cid:4667). Let"s look at some examples: +(cid:884)5=(cid:882) exponential function (cid:3051). So now all we need to do is get the exponent correctly. If you take the derivative twice, you end up with (cid:884)5(cid:2871). A more general solution is (cid:4666)(cid:1872)(cid:4667)=(cid:1853)5+(cid:1854) 5: let"s now solve the same problem with some initial conditions. (cid:4666)(cid:882)(cid:4667)=5 and (cid:4666)(cid:882)(cid:4667)=(cid:884)(cid:882). So we need to take the derivative of the general solution first. Now we plug in the initial conditions. (cid:884)(cid:882)=(cid:884)5 5(cid:1854) 5(cid:1854)=(cid:884)5 (cid:883)(cid:882)(cid:1854) So (cid:1853)=5 (cid:1854) and we can plug that into the first equation and solve for (cid:1854). And the particular solution for this problem is (cid:4666)(cid:1872)(cid:4667)=9(cid:2870)5+(cid:2869)(cid:2870) 5. All solutions of the form (cid:1853) +(cid:1854) +(cid:1855)=(cid:882) have a solution of the form (cid:4666)(cid:1872)(cid:4667)=(cid:3050) where is some constant. But we kind of guessed our way to a solution. And we plug those two derivatives into our general solution.
