Question Paper

1. Answer any three parts:

Show that the function z ln satisfies the equation

d^2z/dx^2 d^2z/dy^2 0

Show that the following equation is exact and solve it

y^2dx 2xy dy 0

Solve the following differential equation: y" 4y 2 sin x

Solve: y tan x sin 2x

Reduce the Helmholtz equation

0

to two ODEs.

Write down the coupled differential equations for two identical pendulums, each having a mass m suspended on a rigid massless rod of length 1 m. The masses are connected by a spring of stiffness constant k. Uncouple these equations using suitable coordinates.

Use power series method to solve the following equation: y" 2y 0

Expand for x n in a Fourier series.
