4.4.3. A Sample of Review Exercises.
(1) Find y solution of y y′′ + 4(y′)2 = 0, with y(0) = 1 and y′(0) = 7.
(2) Find a solution y2 not proportional to the solution y1 = t−4 of
t2 y′′ + 11t y′ + 24 y = 0.
(3) Find the general solution of y′′ + 4 y = 3 sin(2t).
(4) Find the general solution of y′′ − 2 y′ + y =5 et
t2, for t > 0.
(5) Find the movement of m = 5 kg attached to a spring with k = 5 kg/s2, in a
medium with damping constant d = 5 kg/s and initial conditions y(0) = −√3 m
and y′(0) =√3 m/s.
(6) Use the definition of the Laplace transform to compute L[cosh(t)].

(9) Solve y′′ + 3 y = cos(t) δ(t− π), where y(0) = 0, y′(0) = 0.
L[f(t) δ(t− c)] = f(c) e−cs.
