Whats the laplace transform of this one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[f(t)=\int\limits_{0}^{t} x*\sinh(x) dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is a propertie which says: \[\int\limits_{0}^{t}f(\tau)d \tau<->F(s)/\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm missing the "s" of F(s)/S

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did something wrong.. hold on..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[f(t)=\int\limits_{0}^{t}xsinhx dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but it is multiplying in t-domain

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know that convolution in t-domain = multiplying in s-domain

OpenStudy (jamesj):

You'll need to use two results: * L[y(t)] = Y(s), then L[t.y(t)] = -Y'(s) * L[y'(t)] = sY(s) - y(0) Set y'(t) = t.sinh(t) and now solve for Y(s) from the second equation by evaluating L[y'(t)] explicitly. To do that, use the first equation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but james what do i have to do with the integral sign?

OpenStudy (jamesj):

That's what we're working around. f(t) is your integral. But rather than trying to evaluate L[f(t)] explicitly, we're calculating L[f'(t)] and using that result to find L[f(t)].

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i really don't understand anything what you just said, sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so f(t) = xsinhx now i have to look for f'(t)?

OpenStudy (jamesj):

Do you recognize at least the second of these two results? * L[y(t)] = Y(s), then L[t.y(t)] = -Y'(s) * L[y'(t)] = sY(s) - y(0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

L[t.y(t)] = -Y'(s) //This is the diff property

OpenStudy (jamesj):

No, \[ f(t) = \int_0^t x \sinh x \ dx \] hence \[ f'(t) = t \sinh t \]

OpenStudy (jamesj):

and the second result?

OpenStudy (jamesj):

this one: * L[y'(t)] = sY(s) - y(0) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

owhh wrong.. L[t.y(t)] = -Y'(s) //this property multiplication by t L[y'(t)] = sY(s) - y(0) //this is the diff propertie

OpenStudy (jamesj):

ok. Now, you want to find F(s) = L[f(t)] where f(t) is as above. Rather than find it explicitly, I'm suggesting to you that you use the second property, the differentiation property to find it. That is, find L[f'(t)]. Then because L[f'(t)] = sF(s) - f(0) solve for F(s)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But jamesj, i dont see the point do take the derivative of it, is it because the integral will compensate it?

OpenStudy (jamesj):

The point is you can evaluate L[f'(t)] = L[ t. sinh t ]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f'(t) = t.sinht L{f'(t)} <-> s.F(s) - f(0) L{t.sinht} <-> -dF(s)/ds{ s.(1/(s^2-1)) - 0}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this right?

OpenStudy (jamesj):

I don't know what <-> means. What we want first is L[ t . sinh t]. To find that we want L[ sinh t] and then apply the 'multiplication identity'

OpenStudy (jamesj):

Now L[ sinh t ] = 1/(s^2 - 1). Hence \[ L[ t . \sinh t] = - \frac{d \ }{ds} \frac{1}{s^2-1} \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

<-> means the transformation of time domain to s-domain

OpenStudy (jamesj):

Calculate that. Now, once you have it, notice that f(0) = 0 hence \[ L[ f'(t) ] = L[t .\sinh t] = s F(s) - f(0) = s F(s) \] and therefore \[ L[f(t)] = F(s) = L[t .\sinh t] / s \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oke.. i think i got it.. first i have to use the diff property. then the integral property :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have calculate it and i thin the answer is: F(s) = 2/(s^2-1)^2

OpenStudy (jamesj):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

^^ thanksss <3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

finally i get it ;) thank you for your help
