For the differential equations′′+bs′+5s=0,find the values of b that make the general solution overdamped, underdamped, or critically damped. (For each, give an interval or intervals for b for which the equation is as indicated. Thus if the the equation is overdamped for all b in the range −1

Answer:

overdamped = (-∞,√20) u (√20,∞)

underdamped = (-√20,√20)

critically damped = [√20,√20] u [-√20,-√20]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

In order to answer this question we must first write the charcteristic equation, which is obtained replacing a new variable, lets say ω by the derivatives of s, and putting it to the power of the same order of the derivative, e.g

s''' -> ω^3

The characteristic equation is:

ω^2 + bω + 5 = 0

We can now solve for ω using the quadratic formula:

[tex]\omega =\frac{-b \pm \sqrt(b^2 - 20)}{2}[/tex]

If b=0, the solution for ω will be a pure complex number, and that means an undamped oscialtor.

The critically damped solution is given when the determinant of ω is zero, that is

b^2 = 20

|b| = √20

The underdamped is given when we have a non-zero imaginary part for ω

that is

b^2<20

|b| < √20

The overdamped is given when the determinant is positive:

b^2>20

|b| > √20

The solution is critically damped at [tex]|b| = \sqrt{20[/tex], the solution is underdamped at [tex]|b| < \sqrt{20[/tex], and the solution is overdamped at [tex]|b| > \sqrt{20[/tex]

The differential equation is given as:

[tex]s"+bs'+5s=0[/tex]

Rewrite the equation as follows:

[tex]x^2+bx+5s=0[/tex]

Where:

x represents s

Using the quadratic formula, we have the value of x to be:

[tex]x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4 * 1 * 5}}{2 * 1}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 20}}{2}[/tex]

In the above equation, the determinant (d) is:

[tex]d = b^2 - 20[/tex]

When the solution is overdamped, then:

d > 0

So, we have:

[tex]b^2 - 20 > 0[/tex]

Add 20 to both sides

[tex]b^2 > 20[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides

[tex]|b| > \sqrt{20[/tex]

When the solution is underdamped, we have:

d < 0

So, we have:

[tex]|b| < \sqrt{20[/tex]

When the solution is critically damped, we have:

[tex]|b| = \sqrt{20[/tex]
