Problem

The differential equation

d2xdt2+6dxdt+13x=8e3tt0\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}^2 x}{\mathrm{d}t^2} + 6\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t} + 13x ={}& 8\mathrm{e}^{-3t} \qquad t \geqslant 0 \end{align*}

describes the motion of a particle along the xx-axis.

(a) Determine the general solution of this differential equation.

(6)

Given that the motion of the particle satisfies x=12x = \frac{1}{2} and dxdt=12\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t} = \frac{1}{2} when t=0t = 0

(b) determine the particular solution for the motion of the particle.

(4)

On the graph of the particular solution found in part (b), the first turning point for t>0t > 0 occurs at x=ax = a.

(c) Determine, to 3 significant figures, the value of aa.

[Solutions relying entirely on calculator technology are not acceptable.]

这是二阶常系数非齐次微分方程。先用辅助方程求 complementary function;右边是 8e3t8\mathrm{e}^{-3t},而 3-3 不是辅助方程的根,所以 particular integral 可设为 λe3t\lambda\mathrm{e}^{-3t}

The auxiliary equation is

m2+6m+13=0\begin{align*} m^2+6m+13=0 \end{align*}

So

m=6±36522=3±2i\begin{align*} m ={}& \frac{-6\pm\sqrt{36-52}}{2}\\[4mm] ={}& -3\pm2\mathrm{i} \end{align*}

Hence the complementary function is

xc=e3t(Acos2t+Bsin2t)\begin{align*} x_c=\mathrm{e}^{-3t}(A\cos2t+B\sin2t) \end{align*}

For the particular integral, let

xp=λe3t\begin{align*} x_p=\lambda\mathrm{e}^{-3t} \end{align*}

Then

xp=3λe3txp=9λe3t\begin{align*} x_p'={}&-3\lambda\mathrm{e}^{-3t}\\[2mm] x_p''={}&9\lambda\mathrm{e}^{-3t} \end{align*}

Substitute into the differential equation:

9λe3t+6(3λe3t)+13λe3t=8e3t(9λ18λ+13λ)e3t=8e3t4λ=8λ=2\begin{align*} 9\lambda\mathrm{e}^{-3t} +6(-3\lambda\mathrm{e}^{-3t}) +13\lambda\mathrm{e}^{-3t} ={}& 8\mathrm{e}^{-3t}\\[4mm] (9\lambda-18\lambda+13\lambda)\mathrm{e}^{-3t} ={}& 8\mathrm{e}^{-3t}\\[4mm] 4\lambda={}&8\\[2mm] \lambda={}&2 \end{align*}

Therefore

x=e3t(Acos2t+Bsin2t)+2e3t\begin{align*} \boxed{ x=\mathrm{e}^{-3t}(A\cos2t+B\sin2t)+2\mathrm{e}^{-3t} } \end{align*}

先用 x(0)=12x(0)=\frac12AA,再对通解求导,用 x(0)=12x'(0)=\frac12BB。求导时指数因子和括号都要处理。

Using x=12x=\frac12 at t=0t=0,

12=A+2A=32\begin{align*} \frac12 ={}& A+2\\[2mm] A={}&-\frac32 \end{align*}

Differentiate the general solution:

dxdt=e3t(2Asin2t+2Bcos2t)3e3t(Acos2t+Bsin2t)6e3t\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t} ={}& \mathrm{e}^{-3t}(-2A\sin2t+2B\cos2t)\\[2mm] &\,\hspace{2pt}-3\mathrm{e}^{-3t}(A\cos2t+B\sin2t) -6\mathrm{e}^{-3t} \end{align*}

Using dxdt=12\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t}=\frac12 at t=0t=0,

12=2B3A612=2B3(32)612=2B322B=2B=1\begin{align*} \frac12 ={}& 2B-3A-6\\[4mm] \frac12 ={}& 2B-3\left(-\frac32\right)-6\\[4mm] \frac12 ={}& 2B-\frac32\\[4mm] 2B={}&2\\[2mm] B={}&1 \end{align*}

The particular solution is

x=e3t(32cos2t+sin2t+2)\begin{align*} \boxed{ x=\mathrm{e}^{-3t} \left(-\frac32\cos2t+\sin2t+2\right) } \end{align*}

Turning point 需要 dxdt=0\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t}=0。先把 (b) 的导数化简,会得到只含 cos2t\cos2t 的方程。然后用这个 tt 代回 xx,但不能只给计算器黑箱答案。

答题过程

展开

From the derivative in part (b), with A=32A=-\frac32 and B=1B=1,

dxdt=e3t(3sin2t+2cos2t3(32cos2t+sin2t)6)=e3t(132cos2t6)\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t} ={}& \mathrm{e}^{-3t} \left( 3\sin2t+2\cos2t -3\left(-\frac32\cos2t+\sin2t\right)-6 \right)\\[4mm] ={}& \mathrm{e}^{-3t} \left( \frac{13}{2}\cos2t-6 \right) \end{align*}

At a turning point,

e3t(132cos2t6)=0\begin{align*} \mathrm{e}^{-3t} \left( \frac{13}{2}\cos2t-6 \right) ={}&0 \end{align*}

Since e3t0\mathrm{e}^{-3t}\ne0,

132cos2t6=0cos2t=1213\begin{align*} \frac{13}{2}\cos2t-6={}&0\\[2mm] \cos2t={}&\frac{12}{13} \end{align*}

For the first turning point with t>0t>0,

t=12arccos(1213)\begin{align*} t ={}& \frac12\arccos\left(\frac{12}{13}\right) \end{align*}

At this point, sin2t=513\sin2t=\frac{5}{13}, so

x=e3t(321213+513+2)=e3t(1813+513+2613)=e3t\begin{align*} x ={}& \mathrm{e}^{-3t} \left( -\frac32\cdot\frac{12}{13} +\frac{5}{13}+2 \right)\\[4mm] ={}& \mathrm{e}^{-3t} \left( -\frac{18}{13}+\frac{5}{13}+\frac{26}{13} \right)\\[4mm] ={}& \mathrm{e}^{-3t} \end{align*}

Therefore

a=e32arccos(1213)=0.553116\begin{align*} a ={}& \mathrm{e}^{-\frac32\arccos\left(\frac{12}{13}\right)}\\[4mm] ={}& 0.553116\ldots \end{align*}

Hence

a=0.553 to 3 significant figures\begin{align*} \boxed{a=0.553\text{ to 3 significant figures}} \end{align*}
