Name:

1. State the order and determine whether the equation is linear or nonlinear. For linear equa-
tions, state if it is homogeneous or not.

(a) u2t uxx = 0

(b) ux 3uxy + y 3 utx = t sin(x y)

uxx uyy
(c) uxy + x2 y 2 u = y2 x2

2. Solve
(
utt = 16uxx
u(x, 0) = ex , ut (x, 0) = cos(x).

3. Plot the solution of

8

<utt = uxx
u(x, 0) = sin(x), |x|  ⇡, 0 otherwise
>
:
ut (x, 0) = 0.
⇡
for t = 2 and t = 3⇡.

8. Suppose u(x, t) solves the wave equation utt = uxx . Prove that

⇢(x, t) = u2x (x, t) + u2t (x, t)

satisfies the wave equation as well.
