Transform of Derivatives

f ( n) (t ) = s n F ( s) s n1 f (0) s n 2 f (0) ... f ( n1) (0)

eg.
{y} = Y (s )
{y } = sY ( s) y (0)
{y } = s 2Y ( s ) sy (0) y (0)
{y } = s 3Y ( s ) s 2 y (0) sy (0) y (0)

Use Laplace Transform to solve the IVP

Example 1:

y y = 1,

y (0) = 0

Example 2:
y + 9 y = et ,

y (0) = 0, y(0) = 0
