Chapter 5: Q1E (page 259)

In Problems 1–7, convert the given initial value problem into an initial value problem for a system in normal form.
$y'' (t) + ty' (t) - 3 y (t) = t^{2}; y (0) = 3, y' (0) = - 6$

Short Answer

Expert verified

$x'_{1} (t) = x_{2} (t) x'_{2} (t) = - t x_{2} + 3 x_{1} + t^{2} x_{1} (0) = 3 x_{2} (0) = - 6$

Step by step solution

Express the equation in form of x.

Here given;

$y'' (t) + ty' (t) - 3 y (t) = t^{2}$

Denote,

$x_{1} (t) = y (t) x_{2} (t) = y' (t)$

The equation transforms as;

$x'_{1} (t) = x_{2} (t) x'_{2} (t) = - t x_{2} + 3 x_{1} + t^{2}$

the initial conditions

The given initial conditions are $y (0) = 3, y' (0) = - 6$

Initial conditions after transformations;

$x_{1} (0) = 3 x_{2} (0) = - 6$

This is the required result.
