Properties of Laplace Transform: Example

The document summarizes four key properties of the Laplace transform: 1) How the Laplace transform handles constants and scaling factors. 2) The linearity property, which says the transform of sums is the sum of the transforms. 3) The first shifting property, which relates the transform of etf(t) to the transform of f(t). 4) A property involving differentiation of the transform, relating the transform of tf(t) to derivatives of the transform of f(t). Examples are provided to illustrate each property.

PROPERTIES OF LAPLACE TRANSFORM

1) Theorem
If ℒ { f(t) } = F(s), then ℒ {α f(t) } = α F(s)

Proof:
Suppose ℒ { f(t) } = F(s),

ℒ { α f(t) } = ∫0 𝑒 −𝑠𝑡 𝛼𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡


= α ∫0 𝑒 −𝑠𝑡 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡 = αℒ{f(t) } = 𝛼 𝐹(𝑠)

Example
1
Evaluate a) ℒ { 2e5t } = 2 ℒ { e5t } = 2 (𝑠−5)
3
b) ℒ { 5 sin 3t } = 5 ℒ { sin 3t } = 5 (𝑠2 +9)

2) Theorem (Linearity)

If ℒ { f(t) } = F(s) and ℒ { g(t) } = G(s), then


ℒ { a f(t) ± b g(t) } = a F(s) ± b G(s)

Proof:
Suppose ℒ { f(t) } = F(s) and ℒ { g(t) } = G(s),

ℒ { a f(t) ± b g(t) } = ∫0 𝑒 −𝑠𝑡 (𝑎 𝑓(𝑡) ± 𝑏 𝑔(𝑡))𝑑𝑡
∞ ∞
= 𝑎 ∫0 𝑒 −𝑠𝑡 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡 ± 𝑏 ∫0 𝑒 −𝑠𝑡 𝑔(𝑡)𝑑𝑡
= a F(s) ± b G(s)

Example

a) ℒ{5 – 3t} = ℒ{5} – 3 ℒ{t}

= 𝑠 − 𝑠2
b) ℒ{3t3 – 2 sin3t} = 3 ℒ{𝑡 3 } - 2 ℒ{sin 3t}

d) ℒ{5e-2t + 3 – 2 cos2t} = 𝑠+2 + 𝑠 − 𝑠2 +4
6(3!) 3(2!) 4 2 36 6 4 2
e) ℒ {6t3– 3t2 + 4t – 2} = − + −𝑠 = − 𝑠3 + 𝑠2 − 𝑠
𝑠4 𝑠3 𝑠2 𝑠4
2𝑠 5(3)
f) ℒ {2 cosh3t + 5 sinh3t} = 𝑠2 −9 + 𝑠2 −9

3) Theorem ( The first shifting)


If ℒ { f(t) } = F(s), then ℒ { eat f(t) } = F(s –a)

Proof:

Suppose ℒ { f(t) } = ∫0 𝑒 −𝑠𝑡 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡 = F(s),

Then ℒ { eat f(t) } = ∫0 𝑒 𝑎𝑡 𝑒 −𝑠𝑡 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡

= ∫0 𝑒 −(𝑠−𝑎) 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡
Let u = s – a,

∫0 𝑒 −𝑢𝑡 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡 = F(u) = F(s – a)

Example
Determine
a) ℒ { t e-2t }
b) ℒ { e-3t sin 2t }
c) ℒ { t2 e4t }
d) ℒ { t2 e2t + et cos 2t + 3 }

Solution
1
a) Let ℒ {t} = 𝑠2 = 𝐹(𝑠)
1
By first shifting, ℒ { t e-2t } = F(s-(-2)) = F(s+2) = (𝑠+2)2

2
b) Let ℒ {sin 2t} = 𝑠2 +4 = 𝐹(𝑠)
2
By first shifting, ℒ { e-3t sin 2t} = F(s+3) = (𝑠+3)2+4

2
c) Let ℒ {t2} = 𝑠3 = 𝐹(𝑠)
2
By first shifting, ℒ { t2 e4t } = F(s-4) = (𝑠−4)3

d) ℒ { t2 e2t + et cos 2t + 3 } = ℒ { t2 e2t } + ℒ { et cos 2t } + ℒ {3}

= F(s – 2) + F(s -1) + 𝑠
