Differential Equations -A
Solutions of a second order differential linear and homogeneous equation with constant coefficients:
Solve the characteristic equation: a r2 + b r + c = 0
with general solutions r1,2=[(-b±√b2-4ac )/2a].
1> if Δ=b2-4ac > 0 then the solutions r1=r1 are real and
the general solution of the differential equation is
2> if Δ=b2-4ac = 0 then the solutions are real and equal (r1=r>2) and the general solution of the differential equation is
3> if Δ=b2-4ac < 0 then the solutions are complex and the general solution of the differential equation is
where r1,2=k±il=(-b/2a)±i[√b2-4ac /2a]
