Exercise 5-1: Use the Laplace transform to solve the following ODEs: (a)

Exercise 5-1: Use the Laplace transform to solve the following ODEs: (a) +3x+2x= u(t) (b)+2+2x= u(t) Solve each of these for the following initial conditions and forcing functions (hint: use the Laplace transforms from above so simplify the expression in the frequency domain. I would not recommend using convolution, if you can avoid it): (i) Step response: A step input (i.e., u(t) is a Heaviside function) with zero initial conditions (ii) Impulse response: An impulsive input (i.e., u(t) is a Delta function) with zero initial conditions [OPTIONAL] For each case, plot your solution and also plot the solution using the step and impulse commands in Matlab or Python. (iii) Initial condition response: u(t) = 0 with initial conditions (iv) Initial condition response: u(t) = 0 with initial conditions (0) = 1 and (0) = 0. (0) = 0 and (0) = 1. Summary: Solve both equations (a) and (b) using the forcing and initial conditions from (i)-(iv).
