This video introduces external forcing to linear differential equations, and we show how to solve these equations with the method of undetermined coefficients. The idea is simple: 1) solve the unforced, or "homogeneous" system; 2) find a particular solution that equals the forcing when plugged into the ODE (generally, we guess the form of the solution based on the form of the forcing); 3) combine the homogeneous and particular solutions and use this full solution to identify the unknown coefficients with initial conditions.
