1. The Euler equations for unsteady 1D flow is given by

∂ρ ∂ρ ∂u
+u +ρ =0
∂t ∂x ∂x
∂u ∂u c2 ∂ρ
+u =−
∂t ∂x ρ ∂x
 
∂p
c2 =
∂ρ

Using eigenvalue analysis, classify this system

2. Find solution to the following PDE

∂u ∂2u
=
∂t ∂x2
∂u ∂u
(0, t) = (1, t) = 0
∂x ∂x
u(x, 0) = 50x(1 − x); 0 < x < 1

3. Find solution to the following PDE

∂2u ∂2u
+ 2 =0
∂x2 ∂y
u(x, 0) = u(x, b) = 0; 0 < x < b
u(0, y) = 0; u(a, y) = f (y); 0 < y < b
