    How Do You Transform and Simplify the Inverse Laplace Function 1/[s(2s^2+2s+1)]?

    Hey everyone. I've got through most of a problem that involves finding an inverse laplace transform, but I am stuck at one part that requires algebraic manipulation. The function is 1/[s(2s2+2s+1)] So far I have modified it too look like .5/[s(s+.5)2 +.52](1/.5) I'm not sure how to...

    Find the tension of the system (picture included)

    Man thanks a lot chrisk. I still have to solve for L and D but I now know exactly how to approach the problem and solve it. thanks again

    Find the tension of the system (picture included)

    Nope, all that is given is what is shown in the picture, the length of the cable and the distance between the 2 walls. I know some kind of trigonometry is involved here, but I really don't know how to approach it.. At first I was considering making a triangle that goes from one wall to...

    That was my issue too. The fact that the cable is not at the same height led me to think that the angles were not the same. I hope I am wrong because if they do happen to be the same this would make the solution to the problem much easier.

    Find the tension of the system (picture included)

    Oh sorry about that: Fx: T2cos(phi) - T1cos(theta) = 0 Fy: T2sin(phi) + T1sin(theta) = 50 I knew they had to equal 0 and 50 respectively, but the sin part was a careless error on my part. But anyways, sp as you were saying, if t1=t2 should the angles be equal to each other?

    Homework Statement In order to simplify this process and avoid possible errors I have included the scanned image of the problem from my textbook. (Let me know if the picture is too small and I will upload a larger one) Homework Equations Mostly just free body diagrams.. The...
