Q. Detecmine all soluhons for 0⩽t⩽42πcos(πt)+2πcos(2πt)=0
Write Equation: First, let's write down the equation we need to solve: 2πcos(πt)+2πcos(2πt)=0.
Simplify Equation: We can simplify the equation by dividing everything by 2π: cos(πt)+cos(2πt)=0.
Find Solutions for cos(πt): Now, let's find the values of t that satisfy the equation for each cosine term separately within the given interval.
Find Solutions for cos(2πt): For cos(πt)=0, the solutions are t=21 and t=23 since cos(2π)=0 and cos(23π)=0.
Find Common Solutions: For cos(2πt)=0, the solutions are t=41, t=43, t=45, and t=47 since cos(2π)=0 and cos(23π)=0, and we need to divide by 2 to account for the 2πt.
Correct Mistake: Now we need to find the common solutions for cos(πt)+cos(2πt)=0 within the interval 0≤t≤4.
Correct Mistake: Now we need to find the common solutions for cos(πt)+cos(2πt)=0 within the interval 0≤t≤4.Checking the solutions, we see that t=21 and t=23 are common solutions because at these points, cos(πt)=0 and cos(2πt) is also 0.
Correct Mistake: Now we need to find the common solutions for cos(πt)+cos(2πt)=0 within the interval 0≤t≤4. Checking the solutions, we see that t=21 and t=23 are common solutions because at these points, cos(πt)=0 and cos(2πt) is also 0. However, we made a mistake in the previous step; we should have considered the sum of the cosines, not just their individual zeros. Let's correct this.
