Note: You can consider the above equation as a Bernoulli equation with n = 2. b)(x 2 1)y + (x 1)y = 1 solution: y + x 1 x 2 1 y = 1 : linear equation. x 2 1 y + y x + 1 = 1 x 2 1. R 1 Integration factor ρ(x) = e x+1 dx = e ln(x+1) = x + 1. d x + 1 (x + 1)y = dx x 2 1 = 1 x 1. (x + 1)y = ln x 1 + C. ln x 1 + C y =. x + 1 1

2 2 c)y 2 y + 2xy 3 = 6x solution: y + 2xy = 6xy 2 : Bernoulli equation with n = 2. v = y 1 ( 2) = y 3, y = v 1/3 dy and dx = 1 dv v 2/3 3 dx. 1 dv v 2/3 3 dx + 2xv1/3 = 6xv 2/3. dv + 6xv = 18x : linear equation. dx Integrating factor ρ(x) = e R 6xdx = e 3x2. d e 3x2 v = 18 dx (e3x2 v) = 18xe 3x2. xe 3x2 dx = 3e 3x2 + C, u = 3x 2 and du = 6xdx. v = 3 + Ce 3x2. y = (3 + Ce 3x2 ) 1/3.

3 3 d) y = x + y sol) Let v = x + y, then y = v x and dy dx = dv dx 1. dv dx 1 v. dv dx = v + 1 : separable equation. dv = dx. v + 1 Let w = v + 1. Then dv v + 1 = x + C. dx = 1 2 v 1/2 dv and dv = 2v 1/2 dw = 2(w 1)dw. dv 2(w 1) = dw = (2 2 v + 1 w w )dw Thus, = 2w 2 ln w + C = 2( v + 1) 2 ln( v + 1) + C. x = 2( x + y + 1) 2 ln( x + y + 1) + C.

4 Problem 2 A hemispherical bowl (with top radius ) shaped water tank is slowly losing water at its lower end. As a result, the height of water in the tank, given by y(t) satisfies dy dt = 1 72 y (8y y 2 ). a) Solve the DE for y(t) when the tank is initially full. solution: Since the tank is initially full and the top radius is, y(0) =. By separating variables, (8y 1/2 y 3/2 )dy = 1 72 dt y3/2 2 5 y5/2 = t 72 + C. y(0) =, C = b) How long does it take for the tank to be empty? solution: You need to find t for which y(t) = t =. 15

5 Problem 3 Determine whether the given functions are linearly independent or not. a) f(x) = e x sin x, g(x) = e x cos x. solution: W (f, g) = e x sin x e x cos x e 2x (sin x + cos x) e x (cos x sin x) = e 2x ( sin 2 x + sin x cos x) e 2x (sin x cos x + cos 2 x) = e 2x 0. Hence f and g are linearly independent. b) f(x) = sin 2x, g(x) = sin x cos x and h(x) = e x. solution: Note that sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x. Hence f(x) 2g(x) + 0h(x) = 0. Since we can write 0 as a (nontrivial) linear combination of f, g and h, they are linearly dependent. Remark : Nontrivial combination means linear combination other 0f + 0g + 0h = 0. Problem Find the unique solution to the initial value problem y 7y + 12y = (x + 2)e 3x, y(0) = 0, y (0) = 2. solution: Characteristic equation r 2 7r + 12 = (r 3)(r ) = 0, r = 3,. y c = c 1 e 3x + c 2 e x. Your first guess for y p might be y p = (Ax + B)e 3x. But since you have e 3x in y c, the correct candidate should be y p = x(ax + B)e 3x. y p 7y p + 12y p = ( 2Ax + (2A B)) e 3x = (x + 2)e 3x. 2A = 1, 2A B = 1. A = 1, 2 B = 3. y = y c + y p = c 1 e 3x + c 2 e x 3xe 3x 1 2 x2 e 3x. Now, y(0) = c 1 + c 2 = 0, y (0) = 3c 1 + c 2 3 = 2. So, c 1 = 5 and c 2 = 5. the unique solution y is y = 5e 3x + 5e x 1 2 x2 e 3x 3xe 3x. 5

6 6 Problem 5 Find the general solution of the differential equation y y + y + 6y = e 2x + 2x. solution: Characteristic equation is r 3 r 2 +r+6 = 0. We observe that r = 1 is a solution and using this, we factor r 3 r 2 + r + 6 = (r + 1)(r 2 2r + 6) = 0. r = 1, 1 ± 5i. So, y c = c 1 e x + c 2 e x cos 5x + c 3 e x sin 5x. Find each particular solution for e 2x, 2x. For e 2x : Try y p1 = Ae 2x. Note that y p (n) 1 = A2 n e 2x. So, A( )e 2x = e 2x. A = y p1 = 1 18 e2x. For 2x: Try y p2 = Bx + C. Note that y p 2 = y (0) = 0 and y p 2 = B. So, 6Bx + (B + 6C) = 2x. 6B = 2, B + 6C = 0. B = 1, C = Therefore, y p2 = 1 3 x 2 9. y = y c +y p1 +y p2 = c 1 e x +c 2 e x cos 5x+c 3 e x sin 5x e2x x 2 9.

7 Problem 6 Find the general solution to the differential equation y 2y + y = ex. 1+x 2 solution: Characteristic equation: r 2 2r + 1 = 0, (r 1) 2 = 0, r = 1, 1. So, two linearly independent solutions are y 1 = e x, y 2 = xe x. Since the right hand side is f(x) = ex, we need to use the variation 1+x 2 of parameter method. where W = y p = u 1 y 1 + u 2 y 2 = u 1 e x + u 2 xe x, ex e x xex u 1 = ex u 2 = y2 f u 1 = W, u 2 = xe x e x + xe x e 2x e x 1+x 2 e x 1+x 2 e 2x dx = Thus, the general solution is y1 f W. = e2x (x + 1) xe 2x = e 2x. x dx = 1 + x = ln(1 + x2 ). 1 dx = arctan x. 1 + x2 y p = 1 2 ex ln(1 + x 2 ) + xe x arctan x. y = c 1 e x + c 2 xe x 1 2 ex ln(1 + x 2 ) + xe x arctan x.

8 8 Problem 7 Find the Fourier series solution of the end point problem x + 2x = 1 x(0) = 0, x(1) = 0. solution: According to the boundary data, we need to find the sine series of 1, 0 < t < 1. So, 1 = Try b n = sin nπtdt = {, nπ 0, n even. sin nπt. Now, we are looking for the solution x(t) of nπ x + 2x = sin nπt. nπ x(t) = B n sin nπt. This would satisfy the end point conditions. We need to determine B n. x = n 2 π 2 sin nπt. It follow that So, we have Therefore, B n (2 π 2 n 2 ) sin nπt = nodd B n (2 π 2 n 2 ) = nπ, B n = x(t) = nπ(2 n 2 π 2 ), sin nπt. nπ for. for. sin nπt. nπ(2 n 2 π 2 )

9 Problem 8Find a particular solution of the following equations. a) x + 2x = sin t solution: Using undetermined coefficient method, set x p = A sin t+ B cos t. Note here that x c does not have either sin t or cos t. Since there is no x term, we can try x p = A sin t. We can easily deduce that A = 1. So, x p = sin t. b) x + 2x = sin nt. (Find a formal Fourier series solution.) n solution: Since there is no x term, we can try x p (t) = B n sin nt. Then, x p(t) = n 2 B n sin nt. Plugging in x p, x p into the equation, we get ( n 2 + 2)B n sin nt = So, B n = x p (t) = n(2 n 2 ). sin nt. n(2 n 2 ) sin nt. n 9

10 10 Problem 9 Consider the following eigenvalue problem X + λx = 0, 0 < x < π X(0) = 0, X (π) = 0. Show that the eigenvalues λ n and eigenfunctions X n are given by nπ 2 (2n 1)2 (2n 1)x λ n =, X 2 2 n = sin, n = 1, 2, You may use the following fact: cos x = 0 if and only if x =, n = 1, 3, 5,... (i.e, n: odd). solution: i) λ = 0: X = 0. X(x) = C. Since X(0) = 0, C = 0. Hence λ = 0 is not an eigenvalue. ii) λ < 0: set λ = α 2, α > 0 Then, X + α 2 X = 0. The zeros of its characteristic equation is ±α. So, X(x) = Ae αx + Be αx. X(0) = A + B = 0, B = A. X (π) = Ae απ + Be απ = A(e απ e απ ) = 0. Since e απ e απ 0, A = 0 and so B = 0. X(x) = 0. Thus, if λ < 0, it is not an eigenvalue. iii) λ > 0: set λ = α 2, α > 0. Then, the general solution X(x) = A cos αx + B sin αx. X(0) = A = 0, X (π) = Aα sin αx + Bα cos αx = Bα cos αx = 0. Now, we do not want B = 0. So, cos απ = 0, which implies that απ = 2n 1, n = 1, 2,.... Thus the eigenvalues are λ 2 n = (2n 1)2. The corresponding solutions (eigenfunctions) are X n (x) = sin (2n 1)x. 2

11 Problem 11 By separating the variables, solve the following wave equation u xx = u tt, 0 < x < π, t > 0 u(0, t) = 0, u(π, t) = 0, t 0. u(x, 0) = 1, u t (x, 0) = 0, 0 < x < π. solution: Set u(x, t) = X(x)T (t). X T = XT. X X = T T = λ. X + λx = 0. X(0) = 0, X(π) = 0. So, λ n = n2 π 2 π 2 = n 2 and X n (x) = sin nx. Plug in λ n = n 2 into T + λt = 0. We get T + n 2 = 0. T (t) = c 1 cos 2nt + c 2 sin 2nt. Since u t (x, 0) = 0, T (0) = 0. T (t) = 2nc 1 sin 2nt + 2nc 2 cos 2nt, T (t) = 2nc 2 = 0, c 2 = 0. Now Fourier sine series of 1 is Thus, u(x, t) = u(x, 0) = T n (t) = cos 2nt. c n sin nx cos 2nt. n=1 c n sin nx = 1. m=1 sin nx. nπ c n = nπ, if n is odd and otherwise, c n = 0. u(x, t) = sin nx cos 2nt. nπ 11

12 12 Problem 12 Find the solution of the following problem. You are not required to determine the coefficients. solution: u xx + u yy = 0, 0 < x < 2, 0 < y < 2 u(x, 0) = u(x, 2) = 0 u(0, y) = 0. (1) u xx + u yy = 0, 0 < x < 2, 0 < y < 2 (2) u(x, 0) = u(x, 2) = 0 Set u(x, y) = X(x)Y (y). Then, (1) tells us that So, we have X Y + XY = 0. X X = Y Y = λ. (3) Y + λy = 0, () X λx = 0. From (2), we know Y (0) = Y (2) = 0. Using these boundary conditions and the equation (3) above, we have a familiar eigenvalue problem Y + λy = 0 Y (0) = Y (2) = 0. Eigenvalues: λ n = n2 π 2 Eigenfunctions: Y n (y) = sin nπy. 2 We find from u(0, y) = 0 that X(0) = 0. Now plug in λ n = n2 π 2 into the equation () and consider X n2 π 2 = 0 x X(0) = 0. We know that X(x) = c 1 e nπx 2 + c 2 e nπx 2. Since X(0) = c 1 + c 2 = 0, c 2 = c 1. ( nπx ) X(x) = c 1 e 2 e nπx 2. Thus, X n (x) = e nπx 2 e nπx 2.

13 13 So, u(x, y) = c n X n (x)y n (y) = n=1 ( nπx ) c n e 2 e nπx 2 sin nπy. 2 n=1
