Integration by parts 425
- In determining a Fourier series to repre-
sentf(x)=xin the range−πtoπ, Fourier
coefficients are given by:
an=1
π∫π−πxcosnxdxand bn=1
π∫π−πxsinnxdxwhere n is a positive integer. Show by
using integration by parts thatan=0and
bn=−2
ncosnπ.- The equationC=
∫ 10e−^0.^4 θcos1. 2 θdθand S=∫ 10e−^0.^4 θsin1. 2 θdθare involved in the study of damped
oscillations. Determine the values of C
andS.[C= 0 .66,S= 0 .41]
