Short Answer

Expert verified

The value ofx2y'2xy'+2y'=xlnx for general solution isy=C1y+C2y2x2(lnx)2x(lnx)x and particular solution is yp=xlnx+1+(lnx)22.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

The given expressions are x2y''2xy'+2y''=xlnx.

02

Definition of Green Function

In mathematics, a Green's function is the impulse response of an inhomogeneous linear differential operator defined on a domain with specified initial conditions or boundary conditions.

03

Solve the given function

The complementary function of given equation.

yc=C1y1+C2y2

The particular solution is.

yp=Ay1+By2

The coefficient Aand Bare,

A=y1R(x)Wy1,y2dxB=y1R(x)Wy1,y2dxHere,y1=x2andy2=xW=x2x2x1=x2

Substitute value in complementary function

y=C1x2+C2x

Substitute value in the particular solution is.

yp=Ax2+Bx

The value of coefficient A is

A=yR(x)Wy1,y2dxA=xlnxxx2dxA=h+1x

The value of coefficient B is,

B=yR(x)W(y,y)dxB=x2lnxxx2dxB=(lnx)22

Substitute the value in particular solution.

yp=Ay1+By2.yp=x2lnx+1xxlnx)2yp=xlnx+1+(lnx)22

The value of general equation is,

y=C1y+C2y2x2(lnx)2x(lnx)x

Thus, the value ofx2y'2xy'+2y'=xlnx for general solution isyc=C1y1+C2y2x2(lnx)2x(lnx)x and particular solution isyp=xlnx+1+(lnx)22

Use the convolution integral to find the inverse transforms of:

p(p+a)(p+b)2

(a) Show that D(eaxy)=eax(D+a)y,D2(eaxy)=eax(D+a)2y, and so on; that is, for any positive integral n, Dn(eaxy)=eax(D+a)ny.

Thus, show that ifis any polynomial in the operator D, then L(D)(eaxy)=eaxL(D+a)y.

This is called the exponential shift.

(b) Use to show that (D-1)3(exy)=exD3y,(D2+D-6)(e-3xy)=e-3x(D2-5D)y..

(c) Replace Dby D-a, to obtain eaxP(D)y=P(D-a)eaxy

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

(D2-D-6)y=10×e2x; multiplying both sides by e-3xand using (c), we get

e-3x(D2-D-6)y=[D+32-D+3-6"]"ye-3x=(D2+5D)ye-3x=10x

Show that a solution of (D2+5D)u=10xis u=x2-25x; then or use this method to solve Problems 23 to 26.

Find the orthogonal trajectories of each of the following families of curves. In each case, sketch or computer plot several of the given curves and several of their orthogonal trajectories. Be careful to eliminate the constant from y'for the original curves; this constant takes different values for different curves of the original family, and you want an expression for y'which is valid for all curves of the family crossed by the orthogonal trajectory you are trying to find. See equations 2.10to 2.12.

For each of the following differential equations, separate variables and find a solution containing one arbitrary constant. Then find the value of the constant to give a particular solution satisfying the given boundary condition. Computer plot a slope field and some of the solution curves.
