so if sin(wt) is equal to the general solution values of sin and cos?

characteristic equation results in 20i,-20i so y(t)=Acos20t+Bsin20t, if times by t will be equal with sinwt so


20 is it? later questions say "pick a value where resonance occurs" isnt there only the one?
Yeah there's only one positive value, but you could also use -20 and that'd still give resonance. Usually omega is thought of as positive I guess. Using a negative omega here just makes the RHS of your ODE become negative sine, since sine is odd. This means your ''particular solution'' becomes negative of the old one.

for c)do you just get rid of w and say sint then do initial value problem?

for d) do you just solve the initial problem with w=20?

my brain is sickeningly slow today.

Initially there is no current in the circuit and the initial capacitor charge is 2 coulombs. How is this represented in q(t) equations?

im doing c and have

general solution non resonance:

q(t)=acos20t+bsin20t+(100/(20-w^2))sinwt -->let 100/(20-w^2)=M
q'(t)=-20asin20t+20bcos20t+M'
q''(t)=-400acos20t-400bsin20t-M''


hasdasdasfsdfsdfsdfsdf


help PLOX how 2 solve the initial value thing its getting huge, am I doing it wrong?

Current is rate of flow of charge, so initially 0 current means q'(0) = 0. Also, initially 2 coulombs of charge means q(0) = 2.

Yea I realised that a minute after I posted XD

the initial value problem for c) is getting huge... I dont know if im doing it right. You're supposed to get values for everything except the w yea? since w represents all non resonance values.


so ur finding a and b from original thing.


Do u use 100sinwt or the 100/(20-w^2) sinwt



100/(20-w^2) turned so contorted I decided to stop and ask if it should be that way.

I dont see whats wrong with this but its so huge it feels wrong


I got for c)


q(t)=2(20-w^2)cos20t+100sinwtcos20t-5wcoswtsin20t+100sinwt

all over 20-w^2


is dat right?

I cant even figure out how to simplify im so tired atm

O jeez man.... my "constants" search was huge because I didnt realise sin0 is 0. Lmfao.

for d) you just solve q''+20q=100sin((sqrt20)t) right?>


I appreciate your help SO MUCH <3
Yes, that's what you solve for part (d).
