using Fourier Transforms to solve the question.












1














I am given a question of Fourier Transform:



$$ e^{2(t-1)}u(t-1) $$
My teacher solved it by using the formula which I couldn't understand so I tried to apply the properties on it.
Now I have solved it by the following method:



$$ e^{2(t)}u(t) rightarrow frac{1}{2+jomega} $$



Now we know that:
$$delta(t-t_0) rightarrow e^{-jomega t_0} $$
So I used the above property on $u(t-1)$ and got the following answer which is same as my teacher got, which is:



$$ frac{e^{-jomega}}{2+jomega} $$



Is my method correct?

          Assuming that your definition of the Fourier transform is
          $$
          hat f(omega) = int_{mathbb R} f(t)e^{jomega t} mathsf dt,
          $$

          then yes, your answer is correct. We can use a change of variables $s=t+1$ to compute
          begin{align}
          hat f(omega) &= int_1^infty e^{-2(t+1)}e^{jomega t} mathsf dt\
          &= e^{-jomega}int_0^infty e^{-2s}e^{jomega s} mathsf ds\
          &= e^{-jomega}cdotfrac{1}{2+jomega}.
          end{align}
