I don't know if this forum covers signals and systems, but here it is.
The signal x(t) = exp(-at)u(t) is input into a system with impulse response h(t) = sin(2t)/(pi*t)
A) Find the Fourier Transform Y(w) of the output
B) For what value of a does the energy in the output signal equal one-half the input signal energy?
So for part A) - I take the convolution to get y(t), yes? Which is y(t) = ∫exp(-at)u(t)*sin(2(t-τ))/(pi(t-τ))dτ, which is an integral I can't even begin to solve for. But if and when I solve for y(t), I take the fourier transform of it to get Y(w), right? (Any help with that integral or transform would be greatly appreciated). And I don't even know how I would go about solving B). Thanks!
