Question
Consider the Volterra integral equation (see 21) (t) + t 0 (t )() d = sin 2t. (i) (a) Solve the integral equation (i) by using the Laplace transform. (b) By differentiating Eq. (i) twice, show that (t) satisfies the differential equation (t) + (t) = 4 sin 2t. Show also that the initial conditions are (0) = 0, (0) = 2. (c) Solve the initial value problem in part (b) and verify that the solution is the same as the one in part (a).
Solution
The first step in solving 6.6 problem number 22 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Consider the Volterra integral equation (see 21) (t) + t 0 (t )() d = sin 2t. (i) (a) Solve the integral equation (i) by using the Laplace transform. (b) By differentiating Eq. (i) twice, show that (t) satisfies the differential equation (t) + (t) = 4 sin 2t. Show also that the initial conditions are (0) = 0, (0) = 2. (c) Solve the initial value problem in part (b) and verify that the solution is the same as the one in part (a).
From the textbook chapter The Convolution Integral you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
