Questions asked in Differential Equation Minor 2 2023
Q1. Attempt any two parts of the following. Q1(a) is compulsory.
Q1(a). Find the partial differential equation of (i) x^2 + y^2 + (z - a)^2 = b^2 (ii) z = f(x^2 - y^2) [5 marks]
Q2. Attempt any two parts of the following. Q2(a) is compulsory.
Q2(a). A string is stretched and fastened to two points f apart. Motion is started by displacing the string into the form y = k(lx - x^2) form which it is released at time t = 0. Find the displacement of any point on the string at a distance of x from one end at time t. [4 marks]
Q2(b). Solve the equation ∂u/∂t = ∂^2u/∂x^2 with boundary condition u(x,0) = 3sin(nπx), u(0,t) = u(l,t) = 0 where 0 < x < l. [3 marks]
Q2(c). Using the method of separation of variables, solve ∂u/∂x = 2∂u/∂t + u where u(x,0) = 6e^(-3x) [3 marks]
