TopicSecond order differential equations
TypeParticular solution with initial conditions
DifficultyChallenging +1.3 This is a standard second-order linear ODE with constant coefficients requiring complementary function (complex roots giving damped oscillation), particular integral (trial solution for sin 3t), and applying initial conditions. Part (ii) requires recognizing that the complementary function decays exponentially, leaving only the particular integral for large t, then expressing in R sin(θ-φ) form. While multi-step and requiring several techniques, these are all standard procedures taught in Further Maths with no novel insight needed.
Spec4.10e Second order non-homogeneous: complementary + particular integral

  1. Find the particular solution of the differential equation $$\frac { \mathrm { d } ^ { 2 } x } { \mathrm {~d} t ^ { 2 } } + 2 \frac { \mathrm {~d} x } { \mathrm {~d} t } + 10 x = 37 \sin 3 t$$ given that \(x = 3\) and \(\frac { \mathrm { d } x } { \mathrm {~d} t } = 0\) when \(t = 0\).
  2. Show that, for large positive values of \(t\) and for any initial conditions, $$x \approx \sqrt { } ( 37 ) \sin ( 3 t - \phi ) ,$$ where the constant \(\phi\) is such that \(\tan \phi = 6\).
