Second-Order Differential Equations
16
Chapter Preview In Chapter 8, we introduced first-order differential equations and illustrated their use in describing how physical and biological systems change in time or space. As you will see in this chapter, second-order differential equa-tions are equally applicable and are widely used for similar purposes in many disciplines. After presenting some fundamental concepts that underlie second-order linear equations, we turn to linear constant-coefficient equations, which happen to be among the most ap-plicable of all differential equations. After learning how to solve these equations and their associated initial value problems, we discuss a few of the many mathematical models based on second-order equations. The chapter closes with a look at transfer functions, which are used to analyze and design mechanical and electrical oscillators.

16.1 Basic IdeasMuch of what you learned about first-order differential equations in Chapter 8 will be use-ful in the study of second-order equations. Once again, you will see the idea of a general solution, which is an entire family of functions that satisfy the equation. However, many of the methods used to find general solutions of first-order equations do not work for second-order equations. As a result, much of the chapter is devoted to developing new solution methods. At the same time, we highlight many applications of second-order equations.
A Quick OverviewPerhaps the most common source of second-order differential equations is Newton’s sec-ond law of motion, which governs the motion of everyday objects (for example, planets, billiard balls, and raindrops). Therefore, much of this chapter is devoted to developing mathematical formulations of systems that are in motion or that have time-dependent be-havior. As you will see, a system may be a moving object such as a falling stone, a swing-ing pendulum, or a mass on a spring. Less obvious, a system may also be an electrical circuit that produces a radio signal, a boat in pursuit of a fleeing target, or the organs of a person assimilating a drug.
Here is an example of a system. Imagine a block of mass m hanging at rest from a solid support by a spring. If the block is displaced from its rest position and released, then it oscillates up and down along a line (Figure 16.1). We let y1t2 be the position of the block relative to its rest position t time units after it is released. When the spring is stretched below the rest position, the position of the block y1t2 is positive.

1172 Chapter 16 • Second-Order Differential Equations
Newton’s second law for one-dimensional motion governs the motion of the block; it says that
➤ The term my�1t2 is called the inertial term because if there are no external forces 1F = 02, then the equation becomes my�1t2 = 0, which implies that y� (the velocity) is constant. In this case, the object maintains its initial velocity at all times due to its inertia.
mass # acceleration = sum of forces.
m a = y� F¯˘˙ ¯˚˚˘˚˚˙¯˚˘˚˙
We know that the acceleration is a1t2 = y�1t2. Therefore, Newton’s second law takes the form
my�1t2 = F,
Inertial Sum of term forces
where the forces included in F (such as the restoring force of the spring, air resistance, and external forces) may depend on the time t, the position y, and the velocity y�.
We will investigate the spring-block system in detail in Section 16.4. As you will see, a complete mathematical formulation of this system includes a differential equation, with all the relevant external forces, plus a set of initial conditions. The initial conditions specify the initial position and velocity of the block. A typical set of initial conditions has the form y102 = A, y�102 = B, where A and B are given constants.
This combination of a differential equation plus initial conditions is called an initial value problem. The goal of this chapter is to learn how to solve second-order initial value problems.
TerminologyRecall that the order of a differential equation is the highest order that appears on a de-rivative in the equation. This chapter deals with linear second-order equations of the form
y�1t2 + p1t2y�1t2 + q1t2y1t2 = f 1t2. (1)
In this equation, p, q, and f are specified functions of t that are continuous on some interval of interest that we call I. The equation is linear because the unknown function y and its derivatives appear only to the first power, and not in products with each other, or as arguments of other functions. Equations that cannot be put in this form are nonlinear. Solving equation (1) means finding a function y that satisfies the equation on the interval I.
Another useful distinction concerns the function f on the right side of equation (1). An equation in which f 1t2 = 0 on the interval of interest is said to be homogeneous. An equation in which f is not identically zero is nonhomogeneous.
example 1 Classifying differential equations Classify the following differential equations that arise from Newton’s second law.
a. my� = -0.001y� - 2.1y (This equation describes a block of mass m oscillating on a spring in the presence of friction.)
b. my� = mg - 0.051y�22 (This equation describes an object of mass m falling in a gravitational field subject to air resistance, where g is the acceleration due to gravity.)
Solution
a. Writing the equation in the form y� + 10.001>m2y� + 12.1>m2y = 0, we see that it has the form given in (1). The term with the highest order derivative is y�; therefore, the equation is second order. It is linear because y and its derivatives appear only to the first power, and they do not appear in products or composed with other func-tions. It is a homogeneous equation because there is no term independent of y and its derivatives.
➤ When there is no risk of confusion, it is common practice to suppress the independent variable and write y�, y�, and y instead of y�1t2, y�1t2, and y1t2, respectively.

b. As in part (a), the equation is second order. It is nonlinear because y� appears to the second power, and it is nonhomogeneous because the term mg is independent of y and its derivatives. Related Exercises 9–12

Homogeneous Equations and General SolutionsWe now turn to second-order linear homogeneous equations of the form
y� + py� + qy = 0,
and see what it means for a function to be a solution of such an equation.
example 2 Verifying solutions Consider the linear differential equation
t2y� - ty� - 3y = 0, for t 7 0.
a. Verify by substitution that the functions y = t3 and y =1
t are solutions of the equation.
b. Verify by substitution that the function y = 100t3 is a solution of the equation.
c. Verify by substitution that the function y = 6t3 +8
t is a solution of the equation.
Solution
a. Substituting y = t3 into the equation, we carry out the following calculations.
t21t32� - t1t32� - 31t32 y� = 6t y� = 3t2 y = t3
= t216t2 - t13t22 - 3t3
= t316 - 3 - 32 = 0
We see that y = t3 satisfies the equation, for all t 7 0. Substituting y = t-1 into the equation, we find that
t21t-12� - t1t-12� - 31t-12 y� = 2t-3 y� = - t-2 y = t-1
= t212t-32 + t1t-22 - 3t-1
= t-112 + 1 - 32 = 0.
The function y1t2 = t-1 also satisfies the equation, for all t 7 0.
b. Recall that 1cy1t22� = cy�1t2 for real numbers c. So you might anticipate that multiplying the solution y1t2 = t3 by the constant 100 will produce another solution. A quick check shows that
t21100t32� - t1100t32� - 31100t32 = 100t316 - 3 - 32 = 0.
y� = 600t y� = 300t2 y = 100t3
The function y = 100t3 is a solution. We could replace 100 by any constant c and the function y = ct3 would also be a solution. Similarly, y = ct-1 is a solution, for any constant c.
➤ Some books refer to solutions of the homogeneous equation as complementary solutions or complementary functions.
➤ The equation in Example 2 is linear. It can be put in the form y� + py� + qy = 0 by dividing the equation by t2, where t 7 0.

1174 Chapter 16 • Second-Order Differential Equations
c. By parts (a) and (b), we know that y = t3 and y = t-1 are both solutions of the equa-tion. Now we investigate whether a constant multiplied by one solution plus a constant multiplied by the other solution is also a solution. Substituting, we have
t216t3 + 8t-12� - t16t3 + 8t-12� - 316t3 + 8t-12 y� = 36t + 16t-3 y� = 18t2 - 8t-2 y = 6t3 + 8t-1
= t3136 - 18 - 182 + t-1116 + 8 - 242 = 0.
In this case, the sum of constant multiples of two solutions is also a solution, for any constants. Related Exercises 13–22
➤
Example 2 raises some fundamental questions about linear differential equations and it gives some hints about answers. How many solutions does a second-order linear equation have? When can you multiply a solution by a constant (as in Example 2b) and produce another solution? When can you add two solutions (as in Example 2c) and get another solution? Focusing on homogeneous equations, the following theorem begins to answer these questions.
➤ Notice that zero function y = 0 is always a solution of a homogeneous equation. So when we refer to solutions of homogeneous equations, we always mean nonzero (often called nontrivial)solutions.

theorem 16.1 Superposition Principle Suppose that y1 and y2 are solutions of the homogeneous second-order linear equation y� + py� + qy = 0. Then the function y = c1y1 + c2y2 is also a solu-tion of the homogeneous equation, where c1 and c2 are arbitrary constants.
Proof: We verify by substitution that the function y = c1y1 + c2y2 satisfies the equation.
1c1y1 + c2y22� + p1c1y1 + c2y22� + q1c1y1 + c2y22 = c1y1� + c1py1� + qc1y1 + c2y2� + pc2y2� + qc2y2 Expand derivatives; regroup terms.

We have confirmed that y = c1y1 + c2y2 is a solution of the homogeneous equation when y1 and y2 are solutions.
➤
A function of the form c1y1 + c2y2 is called a linear combination or superposition of y1 and y2. Theorem 16.1 says that linear combinations of solutions of a linear homoge-neous equation are also solutions. This important property applies only to linear differen-tial equations.
We now turn to the question of whether a linear combination such as c1y1 + c2y2 accounts for all the solutions of a homogeneous equation. The following definition is critical.

DeFinition Linear Dependence/Independence of Two Functions
Two functions 5 f11t2, f21t26 are linearly dependent on an interval I if one func-tion is a nonzero constant multiple of the other function, for all t in I; that is, for some nonzero constant c, f11t2 = cf21t2, for all t in I. Otherwise, 5 f11t2, f21t26 are linearly independent on I.

16.1 Basic Ideas 1175
For example, the functions 5 t, t36 are linearly independent on any interval because there is no constant c such that t = ct3, for all t in that interval (Figure 16.2a). Similarly, the functions 5sin t, cos t6 are linearly independent on any interval, whereas the func-tions 5et, 2et6 are constant multiples of each other and are linearly dependent on any interval (Figure 16.2b).

An Aside The concept of linear independence is important in many areas of mathe-matics and it applies to objects other than functions. More formally, a set of n functions 5 f11t2, f21t2, c, fn1t26 is linearly dependent on an interval I if there are constants c1, c2, c, cn, not all zero, such that
c1 f11t2 + c2 f21t2 + g+ cn fn1t2 = 0, for all t in I.
Equivalently, if one function in the set can be written as a linear combination of the other functions, then the functions are linearly dependent. If this identity holds only by taking c1 = c2 = g = cn = 0, then the functions are linearly independent. For example, the functions51, t, t26 are linearly independent, whereas the functions 5 t, t2, 3t2 - 2t6 are linearly dependent on 1- � , �2. When n = 2, this more general definition reduces to the definition given above.
As stated in the following theorem, linear independence is the key to determining whether we have found all the solutions of a linear homogeneous differential equation.
➤ The proof of Theorem 16.2 is usually given in more advanced courses on differential equations. That proof relies on the existence and uniqueness theorem for initial value problems given at the end of this section.
theorem 16.2If p and q are continuous on an interval I, and y1 and y2 are linearly independent solutions of the linear homogeneous equation y� + py� + qy = 0, then all so-lutions of the homogeneous equation can be expressed as a linear combination y = c1y1 + c2y2, where c1 and c2 are arbitrary constants.
Using the same argument, the following pairs of functions are linearly independent:
5sin at, cos bt6 on 1- � , �2, for real numbers a � 0 and b,
5eat, ebt6 on 1- � , �2, for real numbers a � b,
5 tp, tq6 on 10, �2, for real numbers p � q.

1176 Chapter 16 • Second-Order Differential Equations
If y1 and y2 are linearly independent solutions, the function y = c1y1 + c2y2, where c1 and c2 are arbitrary real constants, is called the general solution of the homogeneous equation; it represents all possible homogeneous solutions.
Notice the progression here. The general solution of a first-order differential equation involves one arbitrary constant; the general solution of a second-order equation involves two arbitrary constants; and the general solution of an nth-order equation involves n arbi-trary constants.
example 3 General solutions
a. The functions 5et, et+ 26 are solutions of the equation y� - y = 0, for - � 6 t 6 � . If possible, find a general solution of the equation.
b. The functions 5e4t, e-4t6 are solutions of the equation y� - 16y = 0, for - � 6 t 6 � . Show that y = cosh 4t is also a solution.
Solution
a. Noting that et+ 2 = e2et, we see that et+ 2 is a constant multiple of et for all t in 1- � , �2. Therefore, the functions 5et, et+ 26 are linearly dependent, and we cannot determine the general solution from this information alone. Another linearly indepen-dent solution is needed in order to write the general solution. (You can verify that e-t is a second linearly independent solution.)
b. The functions 5e4t, e-4t6 are linearly independent on 1- � , �2 because there is no constant c such that e4t = c e-4t, for all t in 1- � , �2. Therefore, by Theorem 16.2 we can write all solutions of the homogeneous equation in the form c1e

Solution The functions 5sin 3t, cos 3t6 are linearly independent on 1- � , �2 because it is not possible to find a constant c such that sin 3t = c cos 3t, for all t in 1- � , �2. Therefore, the general solution can be written in the form y = c1 sin 3t + c2 cos 3t, where c1 and c2 are real numbers. Related Exercises 23–26

Nonhomogeneous Equations and General SolutionsWe now shift our attention to linear nonhomogeneous equations of the form
y�1t2 + p1t2y�1t2 + q1t2y1t2 = f 1t2,
where the function f is not identically zero on the interval of interest. As before, we assume that p, q, and f are continuous on some interval I of interest. Suppose for the moment that we have found a function that satisfies this equation. Such a solution is called a particular solution, and methods for finding particular solutions are discussed in Section 16.3.
example 5 Another oscillator equation Building on Example 4, the equation y� + 9y = 14 sin 4t describes a spring-block system that is driven by an oscillatory external force f 1t2 = 14 sin 4t in the absence of friction. Show that yp = -2 sin 4t is a particular solution of the equation.
➤ Thinking conceptually, to solve a first-order equation, you must “undo” one derivative, which requires one integration and produces one arbitrary constant in the general solution. To solve an nth-order equation, you must “undo” n derivatives, which requires n integrations and produces n arbitrary constants in the general solution.
➤ The equation in Example 4 and more general oscillator equations are derived in Section 16.4.

The practical meaning of the theorem is that if you find one particular solution, then you can stop looking. Any two particular solutions must differ by a solution of the ho-mogeneous equation, and solutions of the homogeneous equation already appear in the general solution.

theorem 16.4Suppose y1 and y2 are linearly independent solutions of the homogeneous equa-tion y� + py� + qy = 0, and yp is any particular solution of the corresponding nonhomogeneous equation y� + py� + qy = f. Then the general solution of the nonhomogeneous equation is

Our goal is to find the general solution of a given nonhomogeneous equation; that is, a family of functions, all of which satisfy the equation. Before doing so, we can answer an important practical question right now. How many particular solutions does one equation have? When do we stop looking? Theorem 16.3 provides the answers.

Initial Value ProblemsAs mentioned at the beginning of this chapter, mathematical models that involve differen-tial equations often take the form of an initial value problem; that is, a differential equa-tion accompanied by initial conditions. It turns out that with second-order equations, two initial conditions are needed to specify a solution to the initial value problem. Unless there is a good reason to do otherwise, we specify the initial conditions at t = 0. For equations that describe the motion of an object, the initial conditions give the initial position and velocity of the object. As shown in the next example, the two initial conditions are used to determine the two arbitrary constants in the general solution.

Section 16.1 exerciSeSReview Questions
The conditions of this theorem, namely continuity of the coefficients p, q, and f on the interval of interest, guarantee the existence and uniqueness of solutions of initial value problems on same interval. These conditions are satisfied by the equations we consider in this chapter.
The second question concerns general solutions. All the examples of this section have demonstrated that second-order linear homogeneous equations have two linearly indepen-dent solutions, which comprise the general solution. Is this observation always true? The following theorem gives an affirmative answer under appropriate conditions.
theorem 16.6 Linearly Independent Solutions Suppose the functions p and q are continuous on an open interval I. Then the homogeneous equation
y�1t2 + p1t2y�1t2 + q1t2y1t2 = 0
has two linearly independent solutions y1 and y2, and the general solution on I is y = c1y1 + c2y2, where c1 and c2 are arbitrary constants.
These theorems claim the existence of solutions, but they don’t say a word about how to find solutions. We now turn to the practical matter of actually solving differential equations.
1. Describe how to find the order of a differential equation.
2. How do you determine whether a differential equation is linear or nonlinear?
3. What distinguishes a homogeneous from a nonhomogeneous differential equation?
4. Give a general form of a second-order linear nonhomogeneous differential equation.
5. How do you determine whether two functions are linearly dependent on an interval?
6. How many linearly independent functions appear in the general solution of a second-order linear homogeneous differential equation?
7. Explain how to find the general solution of a second-order linear nonhomogeneous differential equation.
8. Explain the steps used to find the solution of an initial value problem that involves a second-order linear nonhomogeneous differential equation.

Use this method to find the general solution of the following equations. The methods of Sections 8.3 and 8.4 may be helpful.
