Question 1

Given a 1D heat equation with boundary conditions u(0) = 0 and u(L) = 0, derive the Fourier series solution for u(x,t).

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember the process involving separation of variables and how boundary conditions shape the outcome.

Question 2

If a function does not satisfy the Dirichlet conditions, describe the potential consequences for the Fourier series approximation.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how convergence relates to the properties of the function you are examining.
