Short Answer

Solve the given initial value problem. y''+2y'+2y=0;y(0)=2,y'(0)=1

The solution of the given initial value y''+2y'+2y=0 is y(t)=e-t(2cost+3sint) when y(0)=2 and y'(0)=1.

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Initial value problem.

An initial value problem is an ordinary differential equation with a given initial condition. The solution of an ordinary differential equation is known as a general solution which consists of an arbitrary constant. The value of an arbitrary constant can be obtained by using the initial condition.

Step 2: Finding the general solution.

Given differential equation is y''+2y'+2y=0.

Then the auxiliary equation is r2+2r+2=0.

role="math" localid="1654075580000" r=-2±22-4×1×22×1r=-2±4-82r=-2±-42r=-2±2i2r=-1±i

Therefore, the general solution is:

y(t)=e-1×t(c1cos(t)+c2sin(t))y(t)=e-t(c1cos(t)+c2sin(t))

Step 3: Finding the values of c1 and c2

Given initial conditions are y(0)=2 and y'(0)=1

y(0)=e-0(c1cos(0)+c2sin(0))c1=2

And

y'(t)=-e-t(c1cost+c2sint)+e-t(-c1sint+c2cost)

Then we have:

y'(0)=-e-0(c1cos0+c2sin0)+e-0(-c1sin0+c2cos0)-c1+c2=1

Substitute c1 in the above equation

-2+c2=1          c2=3

Therefore, the solution is y(t)=e-t(2cost+3sint).
