Answer: Letting v =e2tu, v solves the following transport problem (without damping) { vt + 3vx = 0 x∈ R,t> 0, v(x, 0) =e−|x| x∈ R. After setting g(x) =v(x, 0) =e−|x|, we get v(x,t ) =g(x− 3t), thus v(x,t ) =e−|x−3t|, therefore u(x,t ) = e− ( 2t+|x−3t| ) = { ex−5t if x< 3t, et−x if x≥ 3t. Exercise 2. (9 points) Find1 the solution of the following heat equation:    ut−uxx +u = 4 sin3(x) t> 0, 0<x<π, u(0,t ) =u(π,t ) = 0 t≥ 0, u(x, 0) = 0 0 ≤x≤π. Hint: since initial and boundary conditions are homogeneous, look for a solution of the form u(x,t ) = +∞∑ n=1 cn(t) sin(nx), Answer: Differentiating formally the series of the solution, we get ut(x,t ) = +∞∑ n=1 c′ n(t) sin(nx), u xx(x,t ) = +∞∑ n=1 −n2cn(t) sin(nx), 1It may be useful to recall that sin 3(α) = 3 4 sin(α) − 1 4 sin(3α). plugging these expressions in the equation, collecting similar terms and writing the right-hand side as 4 sin3x = 3 sinx− sin 3x, we obtain +∞∑ n=1 [ c′ n(t) + (n2 + 1)cn(t) ] sin(nx) = 3 sinx− sin 3x; this leads us to infinitely many ordinary differential equations about the functions cn: • n = 1 : the equation is c′ 1(t) + 2c1(t) =…
