Question 1

What happens to higher frequency components in the heat equation solutions over time?

  • They increase
  • They vanish
  • They remain constant

💡 Hint: Think about what rapid changes do over time.

Question 2

True or False: The steady state of temperature in a medium means all temperature differences have evened out.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Focus on the term 'steady state'.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a situation where a metal object is heated unevenly from one end. Describe how the initial temperature distribution affects the steady state. What practical implications arise from this?

💡 Hint: Reflect on how temperature gradients affect material behavior.

Question 2

Simulate a heat distribution scenario using Python, demonstrating how temperature differences change over time following an initial uneven distribution. Provide a brief analysis of your results.

💡 Hint: Think about how to represent heat diffusion as an iterative process.
