Evaluate each of the following definite integrals by using the Laplace transform table.

${\mathbf{\int }}_{\mathbf{0}}^{\mathbf{\infty }}\frac{{\mathbf{e}}^{\mathbf{-}\mathbf{2}\mathbf{t}}\mathbf{-}{\mathbf{e}}^{\mathbf{-}\mathbf{2}\mathbf{e}\mathbf{t}}}{\mathbf{t}}\mathit{d}\mathit{t}$

The given expression is${\int }_0^{\infty }\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-2et}}{t}$ .

Laplace transformation is a way for solving differential equations. The differential equation in the time domain is first translated into an algebraic equation in the frequency domain. The outcome of solving the algebraic equation in frequency domain is then translated to time domain form to obtain the differential equation's ultimate solution.

By the use of Laplace transformation table$\mathit{L}\left(\frac{e^{-at}-e^{-bt}}{t}\right)\mathbf{=}\mathit{I}\mathit{n}\left(\frac{p+b}{p+a}\right)$.

The given expression is,${\int }_0^{\infty }\frac{{\mathrm{e}}^{-2\mathrm{t}}-{\mathrm{e}}^{-2\mathrm{et}}}{\mathrm{t}}\mathrm{dt}$

From definition of Laplace transforms,

role="math" localid="1659257154154" ${\int }_0^{\infty }{e}^{-pt}\left(\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-bt}}{t}\right)dt=L\left(\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-bt}}{t}\right)$

$$\begin{gathered} Also \\ {\int }_0^{\infty }\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-2et}}{t}dt \end{gathered}$$

It can be written as

role="math" localid="1659257577060" ${\int }_0^{\infty }\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-bt}}{t}dt={\int }_0^{\infty }{e}^{-0t}\left(\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-2et}}{t}\right)dt$

Use this property, and Laplace transform$L\left(\frac{e^{-at}-e^{-bt}}{t}\right)=In\left(\frac{p+b}{p+a}\right)$(Property (L21) )as,

$$\begin{gathered} {\int }_0^{\infty }\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-bt}}{t}dt={\int }_0^{\infty }{e}^{-0t}\left(\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-2et}}{t}\right)dt \\ {\int }_0^{\infty }\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-bt}}{t}dt=L\left(\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-2et}}{t}\right) \\ {\int }_0^{\infty }\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-2et}}{t}dt=In\left(\frac{p+2e}{p+2}\right).......\left(1\right) \end{gathered}$$

Substitute for in equation (1).

role="math" localid="1659257837437" $$\begin{gathered} {\int }_0^{\infty }\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-2et}}{t}dt=In\left(\frac{p+2e}{p+2}\right) \\ {\int }_0^{\infty }\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-2et}}{t}dt=In\left(\frac{p+2e}{p+2}\right) \end{gathered}$$

Solve the problem further

$$\begin{gathered} {\int }_0^{\infty }\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-2et}}{t}dt=In\left(\frac{2e}{2}\right) \\ =Ine \\ =1 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the Laplace transforms is${\int }_0^{\infty }\frac{e^{-2t}-e^{-2et}}{t}dt=1$
