Effect of Multiplication by t

If L [ f(t) ] = (), Then [ ( )] =

()

(s)

Proof:
To prove this we have to use method of induction.
Let (s) = L [f(t)]

(s)= () , By the definition of Laplace

Transform
Differentiating both sides w.r.t. s and applying the rule
of differentiation under integral sign

() =

[ ()]

= ()
= - L [t f (t)]

L [t f (t)] = (-1) ()
This is proved for the single time
Lets solve this for m time

i.e. L [ ()] = () ()
1

Differentiating both the sides
Now by the rule of Differentiation
