By effect of multiplication of t
L(t×sinh⁡(4t))=\((-1) \frac{d}{ds} \frac{4}{s^2-16}\)
L(t×sinh⁡(4t))=\(\frac{8s}{(s^2-16)^2}\)
By First shifting property

a) 0
b) 1
c) \(\frac{1}{2}\)
d) \(\frac{-1}{2}\)
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: In the given question,
L(e-3t cos⁡(2t)cos⁡(3t))
L(cos⁡(2t) cos⁡(3t))
=\(\frac{1}{2} L(cos⁡(5t)+cos⁡(t))\)
=\(\frac{1}{2} \left (\frac{s}{(s^2+25)}\right )+\frac{1}{2} \left (\frac{s}{(s^2+1)}\right )\)
By effect of multiplication by t
L(t×cos⁡(2t) cos⁡(3t))=\((-1)×\frac{1}{2}×\frac{d}{ds} \frac{1}{2} \left (\frac{s}{(s^2+25)}\right )+\frac{1}{2} \left (\frac{s}{(s^2+1)}\right )\)
=\(\frac{-1}{2} \left [\frac{25-s^2}{(s^2+25)^2} + \frac{(1-s^2)}{(s^2+1)^2}\right]\)
By the effect of first shifting,
L(te-3t cos⁡(2t)cos⁡(3t))=\(\frac{-1}{2} \left [\frac{25-(s+3)^2}{((s+3)^2+25)^2} + \frac{1-(s+3)^2}{((s+3)^2+1)^2}\right ]\)
k=\(\frac{-1}{2}\).

d) \(\frac{1}{3} log⁡ \left (\frac{s+a}{s-a}\right )\)
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: In the given question,
L(sinh⁡(at))=\(\frac{a}{s^2-a^2}\)
By effect of division by t,
\(L\left (\frac{sinh⁡(at)}{t}\right )=\int_{s}^{\infty}\frac{a}{s^2-a^2} ds\)
=\(a×\frac{1}{2a}×log⁡ \left (\frac{s-a}{s+a}\right ) \) in limits s to ∞
=\(\frac{1}{2} log⁡(0)-\frac{1}{2} log⁡ \left (\frac{s-a}{s+a}\right )\)
=\(\frac{1}{2} log⁡ \left (\frac{s+a}{s-a}\right )\).

c) s×cot⁡(s)-1
d) s×tan⁡(s)-1
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: In the given question,
L(sint)=\(\frac{1}{s^2+1}\)
By effect of division by t,
\(L(\frac{sin⁡t}{t})=\int_{s}^{\infty}\frac{1}{s^2+1} ds\)
=\(\frac{\pi}{2}-tan^{-1}s\)
=cot-1s
By effect of derivative of Laplace Transform,
\(L\left (\frac{d}{dt}\left (\frac{sin⁡t}{t}\right )\right )=s×cot^{-1}s-1\).

c) \(\frac{1}{2s} \left [\frac{3}{s^2+9}+\frac{1}{s^2+1}\right ]\)
d) \(\frac{1}{s} \left [\frac{3}{s^2+9}-\frac{1}{s^2+1}\right ]\)
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: In the given question,
L(sin⁡(t) cos⁡(2t))=\(\frac{1}{2} L(sin⁡(3t)-sin⁡(t))\)
=\(\frac{1}{2} \left [\frac{3}{s^2+9}-\frac{1}{s^2+1}\right ]\)
By Laplace Transformation of an integral,
\(L(\int_{0}^{t}sin⁡(u) cos⁡(2u)du)=\frac{1}{2s} \left [\frac{3}{s^2+9}-\frac{1}{s^2+1}\right ]\)

Explanation: In the given question,
sin4 t=\(\frac{1+cos^2(2t)-2cos⁡(2t)}{4}\)
L(sin4 t)=\(L\left (\frac{1+cos^2 (2t)-2 cos⁡(2t)}{4}\right )\)
=\(\frac{3}{8s}-\frac{s}{2(s^2+4)}+\frac{s}{8(s^2+16)}\)
By First Shifting Property
L(e2t sin4 t)=\(\frac{3}{8(s-2)}-\frac{s}{2((s-2)^2+4)}+\frac{s}{8((s-2)^2+16)}\)
