2. Consider the following:
Prove that x, x2, and 1/x are the solutions to the homogeneous equation
corresponding to x³y"" + x²y" + 2xy' + 2y = 2x4.
b. use variation of parameters to find a particular solution and complete the general
solution to the differential equation. I am interested in process. You may use a
computer for integration, finding determinants and doing Kramer's.
3. A spring is stretched 6 in. by a mass that weighs 8 lb. The mass is attached to a dashpot
mechanism that has a damping constant of 0.25 lb-sec./ft. and is acted on by an external
force of 4 cos 2t lb.
