Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a rod with varying thermal properties. How would the heat equation change in this scenario? Provide a brief analysis.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how each segment of the rod could behave differently.

Question 2

If we increased the length of the rod and kept the boundary conditions the same, how would this impact the Fourier coefficients?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think of how distance impacts the wavelength of the sine functions in the series.
