Abstract: Abstract We define the basic properties of the Laplace transform and create a table of commonly used functions and their transforms. Then we use it to solve initial value problems for equations with constant coefficients. Gamma function appears in a natural manner. Laplace transform is effective in particular for equations that contain step functions and Dirac function. We close the chapter with some nice examples, as the Laplace transform of a Bessel function and calculation of some definite integrals.
