Explanation Given: A string is stretched along the x axis between ( 0 , 0 ) and ( L , 0 ) . Calculation: The wave equation is a 2 ∂ 2 u ∂ x 2 = ∂ 2 u ∂ t 2 . The boundary conditions for the string are obtained as follows: u ( 0 , t ) = 0 and u ( L , t ) = 0 Take Laplace transform on both sides of equation a 2 ∂ 2 u ∂ x 2 = ∂ 2 u ∂ t 2 as follows: a 2 L { ∂ 2 u ∂ x 2 } = L { ∂ 2 u ∂ t 2 } a 2 d 2 U d x 2 = s 2 U ( x , s ) − s u ( x , 0 ) − u t ( x , 0 ) ..... ( 1 ) Take Laplace transform of boundary condition u ( 0 , t ) = 0 as follows: L { u ( 0 , t ) } = L { 0 } U ( 0 , s ) = 0 ..... ( 2 ) Take Laplace transform of boundary condition u ( L , t ) = 0 as follows: L { u ( L , t ) } = L { 0 } U ( L , s ) = 0 ...... ( 3 ) Substitute u ( x , 0 ) = A sin π L x and u t ( x , t ) = 0 in equation (1). a 2 d 2 U d x 2 = s 2 U ( x , s ) − s A sin π L x − ( 0 ) a 2 d 2 U d x 2 = s 2 U ( x , s ) − s A sin π L x d 2 U d x 2 − s 2 a 2 U ( x , s ) = − s a 2 A sin π L x Solve the differential equation by the method undetermined coefficient. The auxiliary equation for the above differential equation as follows: r 2 − s 2 a 2 = 0 Solve the above auxiliary equation as follows: r 2 − s 2 a 2 = 0 r 2 = s 2 a 2 r = ± s a ( Square root ) Therefore, the complementary function of the differential equation d 2 U d x 2 − s 2 a 2 U ( x , s ) = − s a 2 A sin π L x is shown below. C .F = c 1 cosh s a x + c 2 sinh s a x The particular integral of the differential equation d 2 U d x 2 − s 2 a 2 U ( x , s ) = − s a 2 A sin π L x is obtained as follows: ( D 2 − s 2 a 2 ) U ( x , s ) = − s a 2 A sin π L x P .I = 1 D 2 − ( s a ) 2 ( − s a 2 A sin π L x ) ( P .I = U ( x , s ) ) P .I = − s A a 2 ( sin ( π L ) x D 2 − ( s a ) 2 ) P

Roedel Electronics produces tablet computer accessories, including integrated keyboard tablet stands that connect a keyboard to a tablet device and holds the device at a preferred angle for easy viewing and typing. Roedel produces two sizes of integrated keyboard tablet stands, small and large. Each size uses the same keyboard attachment, but the stand consists of two different pieces, a top flap and a vertical stand that differ by size. Thus, a completed integrated keyboard tablet stand consists of three subassemblies that are manufactured by Roedel: a keyboard, a top flap, and a vertical stand. Roedel's sales forecast indicates that 7,000 small integrated keyboard tablet stands and 5,000 large integrated keyboard tablet stands will be needed to satisfy demand during the upcoming Christmas season. Because only 500 hours of in-house manufacturing time are available, Roedel is considering purchasing some, or all, of the subassemblies from outside suppliers. If Roedel manufactures a…
