1 CHAPTER 5 HIGHER-ORDER LINEAR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS SECTION 5. INTRODUCTION: SECOND-ORDER LINEAR EQUATIONS In this section the central ideas of the theory of linear differential equations are introduced and illustrated concretely in the contet of second-order equations. These key concepts include superposition of solutions (Theorem ), eistence and uniqueness of solutions (Theorem ), linear independence, the Wronskian (Theorem 3), and general solutions (Theorem 4). This discussion of second-order equations serves as preparation for the treatment of nth order linear equations in Section 5.. Although the concepts in this section may seem somewhat abstract to students, the problems set is quite tangible and largely computational. In each of Problems 6 the verification that y and y satisfy the given differential equation is a routine matter. As in Eample, we then impose the given initial conditions on the general solution y = c y + c y. This yields two linear equations that determine the values of the constants c and c.. Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) = 0, y (0) = 5 on the general solution y ce ce c + c = 0, c c = 0 with solution = + yields the two equations c = 5/, c = 5/. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = 5(e - e - )/.. Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) =, y (0) = 5 on the general solution 3 3 y = ce + ce yields the two equations c+ c =, 3c 3c = 5 with solution c =, c = 3. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = e 3-3e Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) = 3, y (0) = 8 on the general solution y = ccos+ csinyields the two equations c = 3, c = 8 with solution c = 3, c = 4. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = 3 cos + 4 sin. 4. Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) = 0, y (0) = 0 on the general solution y = ccos5+ csin5yields the two equations c = 0, 5c = 0 with solution c = 3, c = 4. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = 0 cos 5 - sin 5. Section Copyright 00 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.

2 5. Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) =, y (0) = 0 on the general solution y = ce + ce yields the two equations c+ c =, c+ c = 0 with solution c =, c =. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = e - e. 6. Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) = 7, y (0) = on the general solution 3 y = ce + ce yields the two equations c+ c = 7, c 3c = with solution c = 4, c = 3. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = 4e + 3e Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) =, y (0) = 8 on the general solution y c ce c + c =, c = 8 with solution = + yields the two equations c = 6, c = 8. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = 6 8e Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) = 4, y (0) = on the general solution 3 y = c+ ce yields the two equations c+ c = 4, 3c = with solution c = 4 / 3, c = / 3. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = (4 - e 3 )/3. 9. Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) =, y (0) = on the general solution y ce ce = + yields the two equations c =, c + c = with solution c =, c =. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = e - + e Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) = 3, y (0) = 3 on the general solution 5 5 y = ce + ce yields the two equations c = 3, 5c+ c = 3 with solution c = 3, c =. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = 3e 5 - e 5.. Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) = 0, y (0) = 5 on the general solution y cecos cesin = + yields the two equations c = 0, c + c = 5 with solution c = 0, c = 5. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = 5e sin.. Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) =, y (0) = 0 on the general solution 3 3 y = ce cos+ ce sinyields the two equations c =, 3c+ c = 5 with solution c =, c = 3. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = e -3 ( cos + 3 sin ). 3. Imposition of the initial conditions y() = 3, y () = on the general solution y = c + c yields the two equations c+ c = 3, c+ c = with solution c = 5, c =. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = Chapter 5 Copyright 00 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.

3 4. Imposition of the initial conditions y() = 0, y () = 5 on the general solution 3 y = c + c yields the two equations 4 c+ c/8= 0, 4c 3 c/6= 5 with solution c = 3, c = 6. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = 3-6/ Imposition of the initial conditions y() = 7, y () = on the general solution y = c + c lnyields the two equations c = 7, c+ c = with solution c = 7, c = 5. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = 7-5 ln. 6. Imposition of the initial conditions y() =, y () = 3 on the general solution y = ccos(ln ) + csin(ln ) yields the two equations c =, c = 3. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = cos(ln ) + 3 sin(ln ). 7. If y = c/ then or c =. + = / + / = ( )/ 0 unless either c = 0 y y c c c c 8. If y 3 = c then = 6 = 6 6 unless yy c c c c =. 9. If y = + then yy + y = + + = 3/ / 3/ ( /4) ( /) / Linearly dependent, because f() = π = π(cos + sin ) = π g(). Linearly independent, because 3 =+ if > 0, whereas 3 = if < 0.. Linearly independent, because + = c( + ) would require that c = with = 0, but c = 0 with = -. Thus there is no such constant c. 3. Linearly independent, because f() = +g() if > 0, whereas f() = -g() if < Linearly dependent, because g() = f(). 5. f() = e sin and g() = e cos are linearly independent, because f() = k g() would imply that sin = k cos, whereas sin and cos are linearly independent. 6. To see that f() and g() are linearly independent, assume that f() = c g(), and then substitute both = 0 and = π/. 7. Let L[y] = y + py + qy. Then L[y c ] = 0 and L[y p ] = f, so L[y c + y p ] = L[y c ] + [y p ] = 0 + f = f. Section Copyright 00 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.

4 8. If y() = + c cos + c sin then y () = -c sin + c cos, so the initial conditions y(0) = y (0) = - yield c = -, c = -. Hence y = - cos - sin. 9. There is no contradiction because if the given differential equation is divided by to get the form in Equation (8) in the tet, then the resulting functions p() = -4/ and q() = 6/ are not continuous at = (a) y = and y = are linearly independent because require that c = with =, but c = - with = -. = c would 3 3 (b) The fact that W(y, y ) = 0 everywhere does not contradict Theorem 3, because when the given equation is written in the required form y - (3/)y + (3/ )y = 0, the coefficient functions p() = -3/ and q() = 3/ are not continuous at = W(y, y ) = - vanishes at = 0, whereas if y and y were (linearly independent) solutions of an equation y + py + qy = 0 with p and q both continuous on an open interval I containing = 0, then Theorem 3 would imply that W 0 on I. 3. (a) W = y y - y y, so AW' = A(y y + y y - y y - y y ) = y (Ay ) - y (Ay ) = y (-By - Cy ) - y (-By - Cy ) = -B(y y - y y ) (b) (c) and thus AW' = -BW. Just separate the variables. Because the eponential factor is never zero. In Problems 33 4 we give the characteristic equation, its roots, and the corresponding general solution r r r 3 + = 0; =,; y() = c e + c e r r r + 5 = 0; = 3, 5; y() = c e -5 +c e 3 r r r + 5 = 0; = 0, 5; y() = c + c e Chapter 5 Copyright 00 Pearson Education, Inc.

The solution curve with y(0) =, y (0) = 6 is 8 y = e 7e. We find that y = 0 when = ln(7/4) so e = 4 / 7 and e = 6 / 49. It follows that y (ln(7 / 4)) = 6/ 7, so the high point on the curve is (ln(7 / 4)),6 / 7) (0.56,.9), which looks consistent with Fig The two solution curves with y(0) = a and y(0) = b (as well as y (0) = ) are y = a+ e a+ e, y = b+ e b+ e.

6 Subtraction and then division by a - b gives e = e, so it follows that = -ln. Now substitution in either formula gives y = -, so the common point of intersection is (-ln, -). 5. (a) The substitution v = ln gives dy dy dv dy y = = = d dv d dv Then another differentiation using the chain rule gives d y d dy d dy y = = = d d d d dv = + = + dv dv dv d dv dv dy d dy dv dy d y. Substitution of these epressions for immediately the desired Eq. (): y and y into Eq. () in the tet then yields d y dy a + ( b a) + cy = 0. dv dv (b) If the roots r and r of the characteristic equation of Eq. () are real and distinct, then a general solution of the original Euler equation is v r v rv rv r r r y = ce + ce = c e + c e = c + c. 5. The substitution v = ln yields the converted equation d y/ dv y = 0 whose v characteristic equation r = 0 has roots r = and r =. Because e =, the corresponding general solution is y = ce + c e = c + v v c. 53. The substitution v = ln yields the converted equation d y / dv + dy / dv y = 0 whose characteristic equation r + r = 0 has roots r = 4 and r = 3. Because v e =, the corresponding general solution is y = ce + c e = c + c 4v 3v The substitution v = ln yields the converted equation whose characteristic equation 4r 4r 3 0 v Because e =, the corresponding general solution is 4 d y / dv + 4 dy / dv 3y = 0 + = has roots r = 3/ and r = /. 38 Chapter 5 Copyright 00 Pearson Education, Inc.

Because v = ln, the corresponding general solution is y = c + c v = c + c ln. 56. The substitution v = ln yields the converted equation d y / dv 4 dy / dv + 4y = 0 v whose characteristic equation r 4r+ 4= 0 has roots r, r =. Because e =, the corresponding general solution is y = ce + c ve = ( c + c ln v). v v SECTION 5. GENERAL SOLUTIONS OF LINEAR EQUATIONS Students should check each of Theorems through 4 in this section to see that, in the case n =, it reduces to the corresponding theorem in Section 5.. Similarly, the computational problems for this section largely parallel those for the previous section. By the end of Section 5. students should understand that, although we do not prove the eistence-uniqueness theorem now, it provides the basis for everything we do with linear differential equations. The linear combinations listed in Problems 6 were discovered "by inspection" that is, by trial and error.. (5/)() + (-8/3)(3 ) + (-)(5-8 ) = 0. (-4)(5) + (5)( - 3 ) + ()(0 + 5 ) = 0 3. ()(0) + (0)(sin ) + (0)(e ) = 0 4. ()(7) + (-7/)( sin ) + (-7/3)(3 cos ) = 0, because sin + cos =. 5. ()(7) + (-34)(cos ) + (7)(cos ) = 0, because cos = + cos. 6. (-)(e ) + ()(cosh ) + ()(sinh ) = 0, because cosh = (e + e - )/ and sinh = (e - e - )/. Section Copyright 00 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.

In each of Problems 3-0 we first form the general solution y() = c y () + c y () + c 3 y 3 (), then calculate y () and y (), and finally impose the given initial conditions to determine the values of the coefficients c, c, c Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) =, y (0) =, y (0) = 0 on the general solution y = ce + ce + ce yields the three equations 3 c + c + c =, c c c =, c + c + 4c = with solution c = 4/3, c = 0, c3 = /3.

10 c + c =, c c + c = 5, 6c 5c = 3 3 with solution c =, c =, c3 =. Hence the desired particular solution is given by y() = ln. In each of Problems -4 we first form the general solution y() = y c () + y p () = c y () + c y () + y p (), then calculate y (), and finally impose the given initial conditions to determine the values of the coefficients c and c.. Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) =, y (0) = on the general solution y = ccos+ csin+ 3yields the two equations c =, c + 3 = with solution c =, c = 5.

11 (the latter two obtained by successive differentiation of the first one) evidently imply by substituting = 0 that c = c = c 3 = 0. n 8. If you differentiate the equation c0 + c+ c + + cn = 0 repeatedly, n times in succession, the result is the system c c c c n n = 0 c c nc n n = 0 ( n )! c + n! c = 0 n n nc! n = 0 of n+ equations in the n+ coefficients c0, c, c,, c n. Upon substitution of = 0, the (k+)st of these equations reduces to kc! k = 0, so it follows that all these coefficients must vanish. 9. If c 0 e r + c e r + + c n n e r = 0, then division by e r yields c 0 + c + + c n n = 0, so the result of Problem 8 applies. 30. When the equation y - y + y = 0 is rewritten in standard form y + (-/)y + (/ )y = 0, the coefficient functions p () = -/ and p () = / are not continuous at = 0. Thus the hypotheses of Theorem 3 are not satisfied. 3. (a) Substitution of = a in the differential equation gives y ( a) = p y ( a) q( a). (b) If y(0) = and y (0) = 0, then the equation y - y - 5y = 0 implies that y (0) = y (0) + 5y(0) = Let the functions y, y,, y n be chosen as indicated. Then evaluation at = a of the (k - )st derivative of the equation c y + c y + c n y n = 0 yields c k = 0. Thus c = c = = c n = 0, so the functions are linearly independent. 33. This follows from the fact that Section Copyright 00 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.

Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) =, y (0) =, y (0) = 3 on the general solution y = c+ ce + ce yields the three equations / 3 c + c + c =, c c / =, 4 c + c / 4 = with solution c = 7 /, c = /, c3 = 4. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = (-7 + e + 8e -/ )/. 5. Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) =, y (0) = 0, y (0) = on the general solution y c c ce /3 = yields the three equations c + c =, c c / 3 = 0, 4 c / 9 = with solution c = 3/4, c = 3/, c3 = 9/4. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = ( e -/3 )/4. 6. Imposition of the initial conditions y(0) =, y (0) =, y (0) = 3 on the general solution y = c+ ce + ce yields the three equations c + c = 3, 5c + c = 4, 5c 0c = with solution c = 4/5, c = 9/5, c3 = 5. Hence the desired particular solution is y() = (4-9e -5-5e -5 )/ First we spot the root r =. Then long division of the polynomial r + 3r 4 by r - yields the quadratic factor r + 4r+ 4 = ( r+ ) with roots r = -, -. Hence the general solution is y() = c e + c e - + c 3 e First we spot the root r =. Then long division of the polynomial r 3 - r - 5r - by the factor r - yields the quadratic factor r + 3r + = (r + )(r + ) with roots r = -, -/. Hence the general solution is y() = c e + c e - + c 3 e -/ First we spot the root r = 3. Then long division of the polynomial r + 7 by r + 3 yields the quadratic factor r 3r 9 r = 3± i 3 /. Hence the + with roots general solution is y() = c e -3 + e 3/ [c cos(3 3/) + c 3 sin(3 3/)]. 30. First we spot the root r = -. Then long division of the polynomial r 4 - r 3 + r - 3r - 6 Section Copyright 00 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.

18 by r + yields the cubic factor r 3 - r + 3r - 6. Net we spot the root r =, and another long division yields the quadratic factor r + 3 with roots r = ± i 3. Hence the general solution is y() = c e - + c e + c 3 cos 3 + c 4 sin The characteristic equation r 3 + 3r + 4r - 8 = 0 has the evident root r =, and long division then yields the quadratic factor r + 4r + 8 = (r + ) + 4 corresponding to the comple conjugate roots - ± i. Hence the general solution is y() = c e + e - (c cos + c 3 sin ). 3. The characteristic equation r 4 + r 3-3r - 5r - = 0 has root r = that is readily found by trial and error, and long division then yields the factorization (r - )(r + ) 3 = 0. Thus we obtain the general solution y() = c e + (c + c 3 + c 4 )e Knowing that y = e 3 is one solution, we divide the characteristic polynomial r 3 + 3r - 54 by r - 3 and get the quadratic factor r + 6r + 8 = (r + 3) + 9. Hence the general solution is y() = c e 3 + e -3 (c cos 3 + c 3 sin 3). 34. Knowing that y = e /3 is one solution, we divide the characteristic polynomial 3r 3 - r + r - 8 by 3r - and get the quadratic factor r + 4. Hence the general solution is y() = c e /3 + c cos + c 3 sin. 35. The fact that y = cos is one solution tells us that r + 4 is a factor of the characteristic polynomial 6r 4 + 5r 3 + 5r + 0r + 4. Then long division yields the quadratic factor 6r + 5r+ = (3r+ )(r+ ) with roots r = /, /3. Hence the general solution is y() = c e -/ + c e -/3 + c 3 cos + c 4 sin 36. The fact that y = e - sin is one solution tells us that (r + ) + = r + r + is a factor of the characteristic polynomial 9r 3 + r + 4r Chapter 5 Copyright 00 Pearson Education, Inc.

19 Then long division yields the linear factor 9r - 7. Hence the general solution is y() = c e 7/9 + e - (c cos + c 3 sin ) The characteristic equation is r r = r 3 ( r ) = 0, so the general solution is y = A+ B+ C + De. Imposition of the given initial conditions yields the equations A+ D = 8, B+ D =, C+ D = 3, D = 7 with solution A=, B = 5, C = 3, D = 7. Hence the desired particular solution is y = e. 38. Given that r = 5 is one characteristic root, we divide (r 5) into the characteristic 3 polynomial r 5r + 00r 500 and get the remaining factor r Thus the general solution is 5 y = Ae + Bcos0+ Csin0. Imposition of the given initial conditions yields the equations A+ B = 0, 5A+ 0C = 0, 5A 00B = 50 with solution A=, B =, C = 0. Hence the desired particular solution is 5 y = e cos r = r r + r, so the differential equation is y 6y + y 8y = ( r )( r 4) r r 4r 8 + = +, so the differential equation is 4. 4 ( r 4)( r 4) r 6 y y + 4y 8y = 0. + =, so the differential equation is y (4) 6 y = ( r 4) r r 48r 64 + = + + +, so the differential equation is = 0.

The characteristic polynomial is r ir r i r i + 6 = ( + )( 3 ) so the general solution is y = ce + ce = c(cos3+ isin 3 ) + c(cos isin ). 3i i 47. The characteristic roots are r = ± + i 3 = ± (+ i 3) so the general solution is y = ce + ce = ce cos 3 + isin 3 + ce cos 3 isin 3 (+ i 3) (+ i 3) 48. The general solution is y() = Ae + Be α + Ce ß where α = (- + i 3 )/ and β = (- - i 3 )/. Imposition of the given initial conditions yields the equations A+ B+ C = A+ αb+ βc = 0 A+ α B+ β C = 0 that we solve for A = B = C = /3. Thus the desired particular solution is given ( + i 3) / ( 3) / by y = 3 ( e + e + e ), which (using Euler's relation) reduces to the given real-valued solution. 49. The general solution is y = Ae + Be - + C cos + D sin. Imposition of the given initial conditions yields the equations A+ B+ C = 0 A B + D = 0 4A+ B C = 0 8A B D = 30 that we solve for A =, B = -5, C = 3, and D = -9. Thus y() = e - 5e cos - 9 sin. 50. If > 0 then the differential equation is y + y = 0 with general solution y = Acos + Bsin.. But if < 0 it is y y = 0 with general solution y = C cosh + Dsin.

However, the undamped and underdamped cases in which actual oscillations occur are emphasized because they are both the most interesting and the most important cases for applications.. Frequency: ω0 = k/ m = 6/4 = rad/sec= / π Hz Period: P = π / ω0 = π /= π sec. Frequency ω0 = k/ m = 48/ 0.75 = 8 rad / sec = 4 / π Hz Period: P = π / ω0 = π /8 = π /4 sec 3. The spring constant is k = 5 N/0.0 m = 75 N/m. The solution of = 0 with (0) = 0 and (0) = -0 is (t) = - sin 5t. Thus the amplitude is m; the frequency is ω0 = k/ m = 75/3 = 5 rad/sec=.5/ π Hz; and the period is π/5 sec. 4. (a) With m = /4 kg and k = (9 N)/(0.5 m) = 36 N/m we find that ω 0 = rad/sec. The solution of + 44 = 0 with (0) = and (0) = -5 is (t) = cos t - (5/)sin t = (3/)[(/3)cos t - (5/3)sin t] (t) = (3/)cos(t - α) 54 Chapter 5 Copyright 00 Pearson Education, Inc.

23 where α = π - tan - (5/) (b) C = 3/.0833 m and T = π/ sec. 5. The gravitational acceleration at distance R from the center of the earth is g = GM/R. According to Equation (6) in the tet the (circular) frequency ω of a pendulum is given by ω = g/l = GM/R L, so its period is p = π/ω = πr L / GM. 6. If the pendulum in the clock eecutes n cycles per day (86400 sec) at Paris, then its period is p = 86400/n sec. At the equatorial location it takes 4 hr min 40 sec = sec for the same number of cycles, so its period there is p = 86560/n sec. Now let R = 3956 mi be the Earth s "radius" at Paris, and R its "radius" at the equator. Then substitution in the equation p /p = R /R of Problem 5 (with L = L ) yields R = mi. Thus this (rather simplistic) calculation gives 7.33 mi as the thickness of the Earth's equatorial bulge. 7. The period equation p = = ( ) 00 yields.9795 mi 0,450 ft for the altitude of the mountain. 8. Let n be the number of cycles required for a correct clock with unknown pendulum length L and period p to register 4 hrs = sec, so np = The given clock with length L = 30 in and period p loses 0 min = 600 sec per day, so np = Then the formula of Problem 5 yields L p np = = = L p np 86400, so L = (30)(86400 /87000) 9.59 in. 0. The F = ma equation ρπr h = ρπr hg - πr g simplifies to + (g/ρh) = g. The solution of this equation with (0) = (0) = 0 is (t) = ρh( - cos ω 0 t) where ω 0 = g / ρ h. With the given numerical values of ρ, h, and g, the amplitude of oscillation is ρh = 00 cm and the period is p = π ρ h/ g.0 sec. Section Copyright 00 Pearson Education, Inc.

24 . The fact that the buoy weighs 00 lb means that mg = 00 so m = 00/3 slugs. The weight of water is 6.4 lb/ft 3, so the F = ma equation of Problem 0 is (00/3)'' = πr. It follows that the buoy's circular frequency ω is given by ω = (3)(6.4π)r /00. But the fact that the buoy s period is p =.5 sec means that ω = π/.5. Equating these two results yields r ft 3.8 in.. (a) Substitution of M r = (r/r) 3 M in F r = -GM r m/r yields F r = -(GMm/R 3 )r. (b) Because GM/R 3 = g/r, the equation mr'' = F r yields the differential equation r'' + (g/r)r = 0. (c) The solution of this equation with r(0) = R and r'(0) = 0 is r(t) = Rcos ω 0 t where ω 0 = g / R. Hence, with g = 3. ft/sec and R = (3960)(580) ft, we find that the period of the particle s simple harmonic motion is p = π/ω 0 = π R / g sec min. 3.

32 SECTION 5.5 NONHOMOGENEOUS EQUATIONS AND THE METHOD OF UNDETERMINED COEFFICIENTS The method of undetermined coefficients is based on "educated guessing". If we can guess correctly the form of a particular solution of a nonhomogeneous linear equation with constant coefficients, then we can determine the particular solution eplicitly by substitution in the given differential equation. It is pointed out at the end of Section 5.5 that this simple approach is not always successful in which case the method of variation of parameters is available if a complementary function is known. However, undetermined coefficients does turn out to work well with a surprisingly large number of the nonhomogeneous linear differential equations that arise in elementary scientific applications. In each of Problems 0 we give first the form of the trial solution y trial, then the equations in the coefficients we get when we substitute y trial into the differential equation and collect like terms, and finally the resulting particular solution y p.. y = Ae A = y p = (/5)e 3 3 trial ; 5 ;. ytrial = A+ B; A B = 4, B = 3; y p = -(5 + 6)/4 3. ytrial = Acos3+ Bsin3 ; 5A 3B = 0, 3A 5B = ; y p = (cos 3-5 sin 3)/39 4. ytrial = Ae + Be ; 9A+ B = 0, 9B = 3; y p = (-4e + 3e )/9 5.
