Answer 1

Correct option is (b) {0.5 + 0.5e^-2(t+3) – e^-(t-3)} u (t-3) The explanation: Let G(s) = \frac{1}{s(s^2+3s+2)} Or, F(s) = G(s) e^-3s G (t) = L^-1{G(s)} = L^-1{\frac{A}{s} + \frac{B}{s+2} + \frac{C}{s+1}} Solving we get, A = 0.5, B = 0.5, C = -1 So, G (t) = 0.5 + 0.5e^-2t-e^-t The inverse Laplace transform is F (t) = {0.5 + 0.5e^-2(t+3) – e^-(t-3)} u (t-3).
