Question 1

What is the general form of a PDE?

  • F(x,y,z) = 0
  • F(x,y,z,βˆ‚z/βˆ‚x,βˆ‚z/βˆ‚y) = 0
  • F(u,v) = 0

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember that it should involve several variables.

Question 2

True or False: A first-order PDE only includes second-order derivatives.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the definition of order in derivatives.

Question 1

Consider the first-order PDE βˆ‚u/βˆ‚x + βˆ‚u/βˆ‚y = 0. Prove that it represents a wave equation under certain boundary conditions.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how each characteristic relates to the movement of waves.

Question 2

Formulate a problem where a second-order PDE is necessary to describe heat transfer in a rod over time.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how heat dissipates in a one-dimensional space over time.
