Formula for the use of Laplace Transforms to Solve

Second Order Differential Equations.


Given the differential equation

ay ' 'by 'cy g (t ), y (0) y 0 , y' (0) y0'


we have

(as b) y 0 ay 0 ' L( g (t ))


L( y ) 
as 2 bs c
We get the solution y(t) by taking the inverse Laplace transform.

The following table are useful for applying this technique.
