TopicSecond order differential equations
TypeParticular solution with initial conditions
DifficultyChallenging +1.2 This is a standard second-order linear ODE with constant coefficients and particular integral requiring the method of undetermined coefficients. Part (i) involves routine auxiliary equation solving (complex roots), finding a particular integral for sin(3t), and applying initial conditions—all textbook procedures. Part (ii) asks about long-term behavior, recognizing that the complementary function (with negative real part) decays, leaving only the particular integral—a conceptual step but straightforward once understood. While this requires multiple techniques and is Further Maths content (inherently harder), it's still a standard examination question without novel insight required.
Spec4.10d Second order homogeneous: auxiliary equation method4.10e Second order non-homogeneous: complementary + particular integral

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

\begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*)]
\item Find the particular solution of the differential equation
$$\frac{d^2x}{dt^2} + 2\frac{dx}{dt} + 10x = 37\sin 3t,$$
given that $x = 3$ and $\frac{dx}{dt} = 0$ when $t = 0$. [10]

\item Show that, for large positive values of $t$ and for any initial conditions,
$$x \approx \sqrt{(37)}\sin(3t - \phi),$$
where the constant $\phi$ is such that $\tan \phi = 6$. [3]
