Exercise · ZW-LAPLACE-TRANSFORM-001 · ★☆☆ Basic
Compute \(\mathcal L\{1\}(s)\) for \(s>0\).
Choose one option.
Show answer
- A. \(\tfrac1s\)
Explanation
\(\int_0^\infty e^{-st}\,dt=\tfrac1s\) when \(s>0\).
Review the concept: Laplace transform
The Laplace transform \(\mathcal L\) assigns to a function \(f(t)\), defined for \(t\ge0\), the function \(F(s)\) obtained by integrating \(f\) times \(e^{-st}\) over \([0,\infty)\).
\[\mathcal L\{f\}(s)=F(s)=\int_0^\infty e^{-st}f(t)\,dt\]
