Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Prove that if u(x,y) is a solution to \[ \frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial x^2} + \frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial y^2} = 0 \] and v(x,y) is a solution, then au + bv is also a solution for constants a and b.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Break down the terms of both functions.

Question 2

Calculate the steady-state temperature distribution along a rod described by the heat equation with boundaries held at constant temperatures of T1 and T2.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the boundary values set for T1 and T2.
