Laplace Transformations... help me please?

1. Homework Statement .

Find the laplace transformations of the following:

a. <br /> \sin\, {\sqrt\,{x}}<br />

b. <br /> \frac{\cos\,{\sqrt{x}}}{{\sqrt{x}}}<br />

c. <br /> \ erf\,{(t)}^\frac{1}{2}}<br />

d. <br /> \int_{t}^\infty\;\frac{\cos\,x}{x}\<br />

e. <br /> \int_{t}^\infty\;\frac{{e}^{-x}}{x}\<br />


2. Homework Equations .


3. The Attempt at a Solution


I used some properties of Laplace transformations, integration methods but still, didn't work.

are you sure about interval in prob d. and e.? I think it should be [t, inf].
 


yeah... sorry typographical error.. It should be from t to infinity. Thanks!
 


+++ For (d):
You have f(t) ==> f'(t) = -cost / t ==> tf'(t) = -cost
Now, find Laplace transform in both side and use final theorem, differentiation properties to find F.

+++ (e) is similar to (d)

p/s: trying to solve (a) :(
 


d is called cosine integral right?

and e is exponential integral?
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
