Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Prove that the equation \( \frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial x^2} + \frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial y^2} = 0 \) is a linear PDE, and provide a physical interpretation of its meaning.

💡 Hint: Check the way terms are structured; focus on their power.

Question 2

Create a real-life scenario where a non-linear PDE would be used, and explain the significance of being non-linear in that context.

💡 Hint: Consider the nature of fluid motion and challenges in modeling it accurately.
