Obtin the dmped wve eqution u tt c x) 2 u xx ku t where k is the constnt dmping coefficient. Let ux, t) be the verticl displcement of the string, nd θx, t) be the ngle between the tngent to the curve y ux, t) t x nd the positive x-xis. The steps from the book tht re the sme in this cse re: tn θx, t) u x x, t), nd ρx, t) q 1 + u x x, t) 2 ρ x), Tx, t) cosθx, t)) τt), Tb, t) sinθb, t)) T, t) sinθ, t)) τt)u x x, t). The derivtion chnges in tht the eqution for conservtion of momentum is d dt b ρx, t)u t x, t) q 1 + u x x, t) 2 dx Tb, t) sinθb, t)) T, t) sinθ, t)) b ku t x, t)ρx, t) where ku t x, t) is the dmping force per unit mss. This cn be rewritten s b ρ x)u tt x, t)dx τt)u x b, t) τt)u x, t) b τt) u xx x, t)dx b b q 1 + u x x, t) 2 dx, ku t x, t)ρ x)dx ku t x, t)ρ x)dx. Since the intervl [, b] is rbitrry, the integrnds must mtch so we obtin ρ x)u tt x, t) τt)u xx x, t) ku t x, t)ρ x). Assuming s before tht τt) c x)) 2 τ /ρ x), we obtin τ is constnt, dividing by ρ x), nd reclling tht u tt x, t) c x)) 2 u xx x, t) ku t x, t). 1
2: Logn, 1.5 # 5) Consider string whose motion is governed by the eqution ρ u tt τ u xx for x l with boundry conditions u, t) nd ul, t). Let the energy be defined by 1 2 ρ u 2 1 t + 2 τ u 2 x dx. l Et) Show tht the energy is constnt for ll t. l E t) ρ u t u tt + τ u x u xt ) dx. From ρ u tt τ u xx, we see tht ρ u t u tt τ u t u xx, so E t) l τ u t u xx + τ u x u xt ) dx l τ x u tu x )dx τ u t l, t)u x l, t) u t, t)u x, t)). The lst equlity follows becuse u, t) for ll t implies tht u t, t) for ll t, nd similrly u t l, t). 2

Find solution for the wve eqution ρ tt c 2 ρ xx in the domin x > nd < t < in the form of right-trveling wve tht stisfies the given boundry conditions. Tke c 1 nd plot the solution surfce. The generl solution to the 1-D wve eqution tells us tht ρx, t) Fx ct) + Gx + ct) for some functions F nd G. The term Gx + ct) represents wve trvelling to the left, nd we drop it. Hence ρx, t) Fx ct), nd our gol is to determine the fucntion F so tht the boundry condition t x is stisfied. Since ρ, t) F ct), we wnt 1 cos2t), t, F ct), t <. Letting z ct, we see tht we wnt 1 cos 2z/c), z, Hence, or Fz), z >. 1 cos 2x ct)/c), x ct, ρx, t) Fx ct), x ct >, 1 cos2x ct)/c), x ct, ρx, t), x ct >. 3

Suppose tht solution ux, y, z) to this problem exists. Integrte the PDE over the domin to get f x, y, z)dv K4u dv Kr ru dv Kn ru da gx, y, z) da. Hence we see tht R f x, y, z)dv R gx, y, z)da must be true for solution to this problem to exist. The physicl interprettion is tht for stedy-stte het flow with Neumnn boundry conditions, the net source of het in the domin equls the net flux of het cross the boundry of the domin. 4

But then u would hve to be constnt for ll x, y, z) 2, nd since u is zero on nd u is continuous, this constnt would hve to be. Since we ssumed tht u is not identiclly zero, this cnnot hppen, nd so λ <. 5

Then v t x, t) u t x s, t) nd v xx x, t) u xx x s, t), so v t βv xx u t x s, t) βu xx x s, t), since u stisfies the diffusion eqution for llrsptil points. d) Let vx, t) gs)ux s, t)ds. Then v R tx, t) gs)u tx s, t)ds nd v xx x, t) R gs)u R xx x s, t)ds, so v t βv xx gs)u R tx s, t) βu xx x s, t))ds ds. e) Let vx, p t) u x, t) for constnt >.
