The equation for the first derivative dy/dt of the displacement function
is
, obtained using the product rule.
Let
be the displacement function. To find dy/dt, the first derivative, we'll use the product rule.
The product rule states that if
, then
.
Let
. Then,
![\[y'(t) = f'(t)g(t) + f(t)g'(t)\]](https://img.qammunity.org/2024/formulas/mathematics/college/j9omx2jw5vyg9awz7hh868vv0ranfi3sec.png)
Now, find the derivatives:
![\[f'(t) = -2e^(-t)\]\[g'(t) = 3\cos(3t)\]](https://img.qammunity.org/2024/formulas/mathematics/college/morwg3vr927fj9gh225r2mafiy4eb98qdg.png)
Substitute these back into the product rule:
![\[y'(t) = (-2e^(-t))\sin(3t) + (2e^(-t))(3\cos(3t))\]](https://img.qammunity.org/2024/formulas/mathematics/college/ul92wt8k2vk95sbmqz2f65a2zwwd4s5rn8.png)
So, the equation for y'(t) is:
![\[y'(t) = -2e^(-t)\sin(3t) + 6e^(-t)\cos(3t)\]](https://img.qammunity.org/2024/formulas/mathematics/college/4qffvrzzyni4xzkpev59tj4ot56xeddtfw.png)
The complete question is:
The displacement, y(m), of a body in damped oscillation is y = 2e^-t sin3t. use the product rule to find an equation for the object if y = dy/dt.
