Request:
Please check my work. I cannot duplicate the answer in text although it is very close. I believe the problem lies in how I take the derivative. Is there a better way to calculate the inverse transform other than the present method given?
Given:
Find the inverse Laplace transform $\mathcal{L}^{-1}\{tan^{-1}(\frac{s}{\omega})\}$ by first differentiating the Laplace transform and then applying the integral.
Solution:
$$-F'(s)=-\frac{1}{\omega}\cdot \frac{1}{({\frac{s}{\omega}})^2+1}\cdot \frac{\omega}{\omega}$$
$$=-\frac{\omega}{s^2+\omega^2}\cdot$$
$$\mathcal{L}^{-1}\{-F'(s)\}=-\omega sin(\omega t)$$
$$\mathcal{L}^{-1}\{tan^{-1}(\frac{s}{\omega})\}=\frac{f(t)}{t}=-\frac{\omega}{t}\cdot sin(\omega t)$$
Answer In Text:
$$\mathcal{L}^{-1}\{tan^{-1}(\frac{s}{\omega})\}=\frac{1}{t}\cdot sin(\omega t)$$
Question:
What went wrong?
First there is no minus sign for $F'(s)$, i.e.
$F'(s)= {\dfrac{ω}{s^2 + ω^2}}$, not $F'(s)= -{\dfrac{ω}{s^2 + ω^2}}$
Second
$L^{-1}({\dfrac{ω}{s^2 + ω^2}}) = \sin(ωt)$, not $ω\sin(ωt)$
