Step 1
Given Data
The first function is F(s)=1s.
The second function is G(s)=1s2.
(a) Using the convolution theorem, the expression for the inverse Laplace is,
L1[F(s)G(s)]=L1[F(s)]L1(G(s))
=L1(1s)L1(1s2)
=1e2t
=fg
Step 2
The convolution product of two continuous function f and g is,
fg=0tf(tτ)g(τ)dτ
1e2t=0t1e2τdτ
=12e2t12
Hence the Laplace inverse using convolution theorem is 12e2t12.
Step 3
(b) The expression for the sum of the partial fraction of F(s)G(s) is,
F(s)G(s)=1s(s2)
=12(s2)12s
Step 4
The Laplace inverse of F(s)G(s) using partial fraction is,
L1(F(s)G(s))=L1[12(s2)12s]
L1(12(s2))L1(12s)
=12e2t12
Hence the Laplace inverse using partial fraction is 12e2t12.
