Question 1
Consider a second-order PDE. Formulate a Sturm-Liouville problem that yields a set of eigenfunctions appropriate for boundary conditions $u(0)=0$ and $u(L)=0$.
💡 Hint: Focus on how the boundary conditions influence the form of the solution.
Question 2
Using the heat equation example, derive how the coefficients in the expansion relate to the initial condition using the inner product.
💡 Hint: Recall how orthogonality simplifies finding coefficients in the expansion.
