Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: Rewrite the integral and observe its periodic nature
We are given the integral
$$
I = \int_0^{100\pi} \frac{\sin^2 x}{ e^{\left(\frac{x}{\pi} - \left[\frac{x}{\pi}\right]\right)}} \, dx,
$$
where $[z]$ denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to $z$. Note that
$$
\frac{x}{\pi} - \left[\frac{x}{\pi}\right]
$$
is simply the fractional part of $\frac{x}{\pi}$, which repeats every time $x$ increases by $\pi$. Thus, from $x = k\pi$ to $x = (k+1)\pi$, this fractional part behaves the same for each integer $k$. Therefore, over $0$ to $100\pi$, this integral repeats the same pattern 100 times.
Hence, we can write
$$
I = 100 \int_{0}^{\pi} \frac{\sin^2 x}{e^{\{\frac{x}{\pi}\}}}\, dx.
$$
On the interval $[0,\pi]$, the fractional part
$$
\left\{\frac{x}{\pi}\right\}
$$
simplifies to
$$
\frac{x}{\pi}.
$$
So,
$$
I = 100 \int_{0}^{\pi} \frac{\sin^2 x}{e^{(x/\pi)}} \, dx.
$$
Step 2: Substitution to simplify the integral
Let
$$
t = \frac{x}{\pi}
\quad \Longrightarrow \quad
x = \pi t,
\quad
dx = \pi \, dt.
$$
The limits for $x$ from $0$ to $\pi$ translate into $t$ going from $0$ to $1$. Thus,
$$
I = 100 \int_{0}^{\pi} \frac{\sin^2 x}{e^{(x/\pi)}} \, dx
= 100 \int_{0}^{\pi} \frac{\sin^2(\pi \cdot \frac{x}{\pi})}{e^{(x/\pi)}} \, dx
= 100 \pi \int_{0}^{1} \frac{\sin^2(\pi t)}{e^t} \, dt.
$$
Step 3: Use the identity for sinΒ²(Οt)
Recall the trigonometric identity:
$$
\sin^2(\theta) = \frac{1 - \cos(2\theta)}{2}.
$$
Applying this to $\sin^2(\pi t)$, we get:
$$
\sin^2(\pi t) = \frac{1 - \cos(2\pi t)}{2}.
$$
Therefore,
$$
I = 100 \pi \int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{e^t} \cdot \frac{1 - \cos(2\pi t)}{2} \, dt
= 50 \pi \int_{0}^{1} e^{-t} (1 - \cos(2\pi t)) \, dt.
$$
Step 4: Split the integral into two parts
Split the expression inside the integral:
$$
I = 50 \pi \left[\int_{0}^{1} e^{-t}\,dt \;-\; \int_{0}^{1} e^{-t} \cos(2\pi t)\, dt\right].
$$
Hence,
$$
I = 50 \pi \int_{0}^{1} e^{-t}\,dt \;-\; 50 \pi \int_{0}^{1} e^{-t} \cos(2\pi t)\, dt.
$$
Step 5: Evaluate the first integral
The integral of $e^{-t}$ from 0 to 1 is straightforward:
$$
\int_{0}^{1} e^{-t}\,dt = \left[-e^{-t}\right]_{0}^{1} = -e^{-1} + 1 = 1 - e^{-1}.
$$
Thus,
$$
50 \pi \int_{0}^{1} e^{-t}\, dt = 50 \pi \bigl(1 - e^{-1}\bigr).
$$
Step 6: Evaluate the second integral involving cos(2Οt)
Next, we need
$$
\int_{0}^{1} e^{-t} \cos(2\pi t)\, dt.
$$
This can be found using integration by parts or known standard integrals of the form
$\int e^{at}\cos(bt)\,dt$, yielding a result proportional to
$$
\frac{e^{-1}\Big(\ldots\Big) - \ldots}{1 + (2\pi)^2},
$$
without detailing every step of partial fractions or integration by parts within this summary. The important outcome is that the term ultimately simplifies in combination with the rest of the expression to a factor that matches
$$
\frac{1 - e^{-1}}{1 + 4\pi^2}.
$$
Step 7: Combine the results and identify Ξ±
Putting all pieces together, the integral $I$ takes the final form
$$
I = \frac{200\,\pi^3\bigl(1 - e^{-1}\bigr)}{1 + 4\pi^2}.
$$
According to the problem statement,
$$
I = \frac{\alpha\,\pi^3}{1 + 4\pi^2}.
$$
By comparing both expressions, we see
$$
\alpha = 200\bigl(1 - e^{-1}\bigr).
$$
Final Answer
$$
\alpha = 200\bigl(1 - e^{-1}\bigr).
$$
