Determine the Laplace transform for the following functions

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on verifying the Laplace transforms of several functions. Participants confirm that the transforms for the first, second, and fourth functions are correct, while the third function is noted as dimensionally incorrect and requires a proper transformation approach. The fifth function is initially uncertain but later deemed acceptable after corrections. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the importance of proper notation and dimensional consistency in Laplace transforms. The participants express encouragement and acknowledgment of progress in understanding the topic.

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution


1. ##\frac{1}{s+2}+\frac{1}{s^2+1}## OK
2. ##\frac{2}{s}+\frac{3}{s+4}## OK
3. ##\frac{s*sin(-2)+cos(-2)}{s^2+1}## NOT OK. If f(t) ⇔ F(s) what is the transform of f(t-T)u(t-T)? Also, this is dimensionally incorrect.The units of F(s) are the units of f(t) times time t.
4. ##\frac{1}{(s+1)^2}## OK
5. Don't really know how to do this one...You can surely do the 1st term. For the approach to the second term, see my remark for problem 3.
 
f(t-T)u(t-T) = ##e^{-as}F(s)##
##F(s)=\frac{s(sin(-2)+cos(-2)}{s^2+1}##
3. ##\frac{e^{-2s}*s*sin(-2)+cos(-2)}{s^2+1}##

5. ##(\frac{-5}{3s^2}+\frac{5}{s}) - ((\frac{-5}{3s^2}+\frac{7}{s})*e^{-4.2s})##

$3 you copied F(s) incorrectly. Correct it first.
#5 looks OK now but I don't have time right now to be sure.

a = 1, b=-2
What did I do wrong?
##F(s)=\frac{s*sin(-2)+cos(-2)}{s^2+1}##

Nothing. Sorry! But the exp(-2s) factor has to include all of F(s), i.e. you need another bracket. (Your post 3, prob. 3).
I think you have the hang of it. Good work.
