Question 1

Derive the initial and boundary conditions for a heat equation modeling a metal rod being heated at one end while insulated at the other. Discuss the implications of these conditions.

💡 Hint: Think about the physical setup of a heated rod and how the conditions would realistically behave.

Question 2

For a wave equation of a vibrating string with fixed ends, explain how each boundary condition impacts the system's physical interpretation and state over time.

💡 Hint: Consider how the boundary conditions relate to physical ties and effects on wave dynamics.
