SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS 1 1.1
(a) To two decimal places p = 124.68 (rounded up to the next even multiple); (b) To two significant figures q = 400 ; (c) To one significant figure r = 0.04 (the leading zeros are ignored).

(a) The prime factorisation in index form is 756 = 22337 ; (b) For a given integer m, the best choice of n is given by 0.57m rounded to the nearest integer. So we can construct the following table:
m=5
0.57m = 2.85
n=3
3 5 = 0.600
m=6
0.57m = 3.42
n=3
3 6 = 0.500
m=7
0.57m = 3.99
n=4
4 7 = 0.571
In scientific notation, (a) p = 1.246×103 to four significant figures; (b) (−1.2×10−2 )×(1.31×105 ) = (−1.2×1.31)×105−2 , which to two decimal places is
1.57 ×103 ; (c) 5×10−4 + 4 ×10−3 = 0.5×10−3 + 4 ×10−3 = 4.5×10−3. *1.4
We need to prove that this is not true, so that
m is irrational unless it is an integer. We start by assuming m is rational and we can write
m = p q , where p and q
have no common factors, and q ≠ 1 to rule out the case that
m is an integer.
Then, (a) p 2 and q 2 can have no common factors since p and q have no common factors, and (b) since p 2 = mq 2 , where m is an integer and q ≠ 1 , p 2 and q 2 have a common factor q. Statements (a) and (b) are contradictory, so the assumption that
m is a rational number when it is not an integer, is false. 1.5

so 10 = 10102 in base-2. Similarly,

n = −4 2n R
≈ 0.06 ≈ 0
so 0.31 ≈ 01012 in base-2, and finally 10.31 = 1010.01012 … in base-2. (b) We have,
11012 = 23 + 22 + 20 = 13 in base-10 and
0.012 = 2−2 = 0.25 in base-10. So 1101.012 = 13.25 in decimals. *1.8
Firstly we find p and q in the decimal system. Thus,
p = 2014 = (2× 4 2 ) + (1× 4 0 ) = 33 and q = 1304 = (1× 4 2 ) + (3× 41 ) = 28 . (a) In decimals, p ×q = 924 and in base-4
p ×q =
201 130 20100 12030 32130
which in decimals is
S1.2
321304 = (3×4 4 ) + (2×4 3 ) + (1×4 2 ) + (3×4) = 768 + 128 + 16 + 12 = 924. (b) In decimals (p −q) = 5 and in base-4,
p −q = 201 130 11 and in decimals 114 = (1× 41 ) + (1× 4 0 ) = 5.

(a) For x > 1.5 , the condition requires 2x − 3 < 5 , i.e. x < 4 . For x < 1.5 , it requires 3 − 2x < 5 , i.e. x > −1 . So −1 < x < 4 . (b) For x 2 > 10 , we must have x 2 −10 < 6 , i.e. x 2 < 16. For x 2 < 10 , we must have 10 − x 2 < 6 , i.e. x 2 > 4 . So −4 < x < −2 or 2 < x < 4. (c) We cannot multiply both sides by (x + 2) because this may be negative. But we can multiply by (x + 2)2 > 0 . Then
x(x + 2) < 2(x + 2)2 ⇒ x 2 + 6x + 8 = (x + 2)(x + 4) > 0 ⇒ x > −2 or x < −4. 1.12

The term in a 3 therefore has 14 − n = 3 , i.e. n = 11 , and so

50 + 7 = 12 , so 5n + 7 is divisible by 4 for n = 0 . To generalise to all n ≥ 0 , we just have to show that if 5n + 7 is divisible by 4 for any given n, then 5m + 7 is divisible by 4, where m = n + 1 . To see this, we write
5m + 7 = 5×5n + 7 = 4 ×5n + (5n + 7) which is divisible by 4 since both terms are divisible by 4. 1.16
One easily verifies that the equation is satisfied for n = 1 . This can be generalised to all n ≥ 1 by induction. i.e. by showing that if it is true for any given n ≥ 1 , it is true for m = n + 1 . To do this, we write

(a) Squaring both sides and cross multiplying gives
y 2(x 2 − 2) = x 2 − 6 and hence x =
(b) y =
2(y − 3) , y 2 −1
(x −1)(x − 2) (x −1) 2y + 1 = , so after cross multiplying this gives x = . (x + 2)(x − 2) (x + 2) 1 −y 1/3
⎛(x + 2)(x − 2)⎞⎟ ⎟⎟ (c) y = ⎜⎜⎜ ⎟⎠ ⎜⎝ x +2 2
= (x − 2)1/3 , so cubing both sides and cross multiplying
gives x = y 6 + 2 . 1.18
We have
⎛ 4 − x ⎞⎟ ⎛ 4 + x ⎞⎟ ⎟⎟ and f (−x) = −⎜⎜ ⎟ f (x) = ⎜⎜⎜ ⎜⎜⎝ x + 3 ⎟⎟⎠ , ⎜⎝ x − 3 ⎟⎠ and
fS (x) = 12 [f (x) + f (−x)] and fA(x) = 12 [f (x)− f (−x)] . So,
fS (x) =
1 ⎡⎢ 4 − x 4 + x ⎤⎥ (x 2 −12) − =− 2 , 2 ⎢⎣ x − 3 x + 3 ⎥⎦ (x − 9)
and
fA(x) =

To check,
(x 2 − x −12) (x 2 − 9) (x + 3)(x − 4) 4 − x =− = . (x − 3)(x + 3) x − 3
f (x) = fs (x) + fA(x) = −

(a) Setting y = f (x) = (x − 2) (x + 2) , gives x = 2(y + 1) (1 −y) , and hence the inverse function is
f −1(x) =
2(x + 1) , (1 − x)
S1.5
(x ≠ 1) .
(b) Setting y = f (x) = 13 (x + 4)1/3 , gives x = 27y 3 − 4 and hence f −1(x) = 27x 3 − 4 . 1.20
(a) If the straight line y = mx +c passes through the points (x,y) = (1, 2) and (4,−1) , this implies that 2 = m +c and −1 = 4m +c . Solving these gives m = −1, c = 3 and hence the equation is y = −x + 3 . (b) If the straight line y = mx +c passes through the point (2,–1) with slope 2 3 , this implies y = 2x 3 +c with −1 = 4 3 +c , i.e. c = −7 3 , so the equation is 3y = 2x − 7. (c) If the straight line y = mx +c is parallel to the line 2y + 5x = 7 , this implies
2y + 5x = c , and if it passes through the point (1, 4) , then 2y + 5x = 13 = c , so the equation is 2y + 5x = 13 . (d) Two perpendicular lines with slopes m1 and m2 have m1m2 = −1 , so the slope of the line is −2 5 , i.e. its equation is y = −2x 5 +c , or 5y + 2x = 5c . Since it passes through the point (1, 4) , 5c = 22 , i.e. 5y + 2x = 22. 1.21
The line y = 3x + 6 has slope 6 and so the slope of the perpendicular line to this has slope −1 3 . Since it passes through the point (2, 2) , its equation is 3y + x = 8 and this meets the line y = 3x + 6 at the point (−1,−3) . Finally, the distance between
(2, 2) and (−1,−3) is 1.22
(2 + 1)2 + (2 + 3)2 = 34 .
First we find the vertices of the triangle ABC. A is the intersection of 5y = 3x + 2 and y = −x + 2 , i.e. A = (1,1) . Likewise, B is the intersection of 5y = 3x + 2 and
y = 3x −14 , i.e. B = (6, 4) and C is the intersection of y = 3x −14 and y = −x + 2 , i.e. C = (4,−2) . The triangle is shown in the figure below.
S1.6
The area of the triangle ABC is
1 2
bh , where b is the base, taken to be the line BC
and h is the height shown on the figure. Then
b = BC = (6 − 4)2 + (4 + 2)2 = 40 To find h we need to find the length of the perpendicular from A to the line BC, i.e. y = 3x −14 . From the condition m1m2 = −1 , the perpendicular line must be of the form y = −x 3 +c and since it passes through A = (1,1) , it must be y = −x 3 + 4 3 . It meets the line BC when 3x −14 = −x 3 + 4 3 , i.e. when x = 23 5 and hence
y = −1 5 . So the length h is given by
h = (1 − 23 5)2 + (1 + 1 5)2 =

360 .
Finally,
area = 12 × 15 40 × 360 = 12 . 1.23
The equation of a circle with centre (x,y) = (a,b) and radius r is
(x −a)2 + (y −b)2 = r 2 . (a) The equation is (x −1)2 + (y − 3)2 = 4 (b) The radius is now the distance from (1, 3) to (−2,5) , i.e.
r 2 = (1 + 2)2 + (3 − 5)2 = 13 , so the equation is (x −1)2 + (y − 3)2 = 13 .
S1.7
1.24
Grouping the terms in x and y, we can write
(x 2 −ax) = (x −a 2)2 −a 2 4 and
(y 2 −bx) = (x −b 2)2 −b 2 4 , so that
x 2 + y 2 −ax −by +c 2 = (x −a 2)2 + (y −b 2)2 −a 2 4 −b 2 4 +c 2 = 0, that is,
(x −a 2)2 + (y −b 2)2 = (a 2 +b 2 − 4c 2 ) 4 , which is the equation of a circle centred at (a 2, b 2) and with radius
r=
a 2 +b 2 − 4c 2 , 4
provided a 2 +b 2 − 4c 2 > 0 . For x 2 + y 2 − 2x − 3y + 1 = 0 , we have a = 2, b = 3, c = 1 , so the circle is centred at (1, 3 2) , with radius r = 3 2 . 1.25

From (2.8),
⎛1 1⎞ ⎛ 1 ⎞ x 2 − ⎜⎜⎜ + ⎟⎟⎟ x + ⎜⎜⎜ ⎟⎟⎟ = 0 , i.e. αβx 2 −(α + β)x + 1 = 0 . ⎜⎝ α β ⎟⎠ ⎜⎝ αβ ⎟⎠ But α + β = 2 and αβ = −3 , so the required equation is 3x 2 + 2x −1 = 0 . 2.2
Rearranging the expression for p, we have the equation
5x 2 − 3px + (p + 10) = 0 . Then using the general formula for the solution of a quadratic equation, (2.6b), real roots are only possible if 9p 2 ≥ 20(p + 10) . 2.3
We need to solve the equation y = mx +c simultaneously with the equation for the circle. Substituting for y gives, after rearrangement,
(1 + m 2 )x 2 + 2mcx + (c 2 −r 2 ) = 0 , which is a quadratic of the form αx 2 + βx + γ = 0 . This will have a single real root if

Thus there are two tangents as shown in the figure below.

The equations of the two circles are

i.e. x 2 + y 2 − 2x + 2y − 2 = 0 ,
S2.1
(1)
and
x2 + y2 = 4 ,
(2)
respectively. Subtracting (2) from (1) gives
−2x + 2y = −2,
i.e. y = x −1
(3)
and substituting in (2) gives 2x 2 − 2x − 3 = 0 , with solutions
x = (1 + 7) 2
and
x = (1 − 7) 2
respectively. From (3) the corresponding values of y are
y = (−1 + 7) 2
and
y = (−1 − 7) 2 .
Hence the co-ordinates of the points of intersection are

14 and the radius of the circle is 2 in each case. Hence with
a = 14, b = c = 2 ,
gives
cosA = −6 8
and
A = 2.42 rad = 139 . 2.5
(a) We have
(x 3 + x 2 − x − 4) = (x −1)(ax 2 +bx +c) + R(x) . Setting x = 1 gives R = −3 ; and multiplying out the bracket and equating powers of x gives a = 1, b = 2, c = 1 , so that
(x 3 + x 2 − x − 4) = (x −1)(x 2 + 2x + 1)− 3 . (b) By long division,
3x 2 + 5x + 5 (x 2 − 2x + 3) 3x 4 − x 3 + 4x 2 + 5x + 15 3x 4 −6x 3 + 9x 2 5x 3 − 5x 2 + 5x + 15 5x 3 −10x 2 + 15x 5x 2 − 10x + 15 5x 2 −10x + 15 0 so that
3x 4 − x 3 + 4x 2 + 5x + 15 = (x 2 − 2x + 3)(3x 2 + 5x + 5) ,
S2.2
with the remainder R(x) = 0 . Since both (x 2 − 2x + 3) and (3x 2 + 5x + 5) are of the form ax 2 +bx +c with b 2 < 4ac , both of them, and hence the quartic f (x) itself, have no real roots. 2.6
By inspection, one finds that x = 1 and x = 2 are roots. Hence, by the factor theorem,
x 4 − 2x 3 − 2x 2 + 5x − 2 = (x −1)(x − 2)(ax 2 +bx +c) . By comparing powers of x 4 on both sides one finds a = 1 , and by comparing the constant term, c = −1 . Hence
x 4 − 2x 3 − 2x 2 + 5x − 2 = (x −1)(x − 2)(x 2 +bx −1) . Also, comparing powers of x 3 gives b = 1 and hence
x 4 − 2x 3 − 2x 2 + 5x − 2 = (x −1)(x − 2)(x 2 + x −1) . The roots of (x 2 + x −1) are (−1 ± 5) 2 , and so finally the four roots are
x = 1, 2, (−1 + 5) 2, (−1 − 5) 2 . 2.7

gives
2(x 2 − 9x + 11) = A(x − 3)(x + 4) + B(x − 2)(x + 4) +C(x − 2)(x − 3) and using x = 2 , x = 3 and x = −4 in turn, yields A = 1 , B = −2 and C = 3 , so that

A(x + 2) + B(x −1) = 5x + 4 ⇒ A = 3, B = 2 and so

3x 2 − 5x − 4 = A(3x 2 + x −1) + (x + 2)(Bx +C ) , and choosing x = −2 , yields A = 2. Then
3x 2 − 5x − 4 = (6 + B)x 2 + (2B +C + 2)x + (2C − 2) , and equating coefficients of powers of x, gives B = −3 and C = −1 . So finally,
3x 2 − 5x − 4 2 3x + 1 = − . 2 (x + 2)(3x + x −1) (x + 2) (3x 2 + x −1) (c) Setting
3x 2 − x + 2 A B C D , = + + + 3 2 (x −1) (x − 3) (x − 3) (x −1)(x − 3) (x − 3)3 gives
3x 2 − x + 2 = A(x − 3)3 + B(x −1)(x − 3)2 +C(x −1)(x − 3) + D(x −1) . Letting x = 1 yields A = −1 2 , and letting x = 3 yields D = 13 . Then equating the coefficients of x 3 gives B = 1 2 and equating the constants on both sides gives C = 2 . So, finally
3x 2 − x + 2 1 1 2 13 . =− + + + 3 2 2(x −1) 2(x − 3) (x −1)(x − 3) (x − 3) (x − 3)3 2.10
(a) Using the double-angle formulas,
cos 4θ ≡ 2cos2 2θ −1 and
cos 2θ ≡ 2cos2 θ −1 ,
so that
cos 4θ ≡ 2(2cos2 θ −1)2 ≡ 8 cos4 θ − 8 cos2 θ + 1 . (b) Using the identities (2.36c) and (2.36d).
sin(nθ) + sin[(n + 4)θ] ≡ 2sin[(n + 2)θ]cos(2θ) and
cos(nθ) + cos[(n + 4)θ] ≡ 2cos[(n + 2)θ]cos(2θ) ,
S2.5
in the left-hand side of the identity gives

Then from (2.36c), sin 6θ may be written
sin 6θ = sin 4θ cos 2θ + cos 4θ sin 2θ , and using the double-angle formulas (2.37a) on the right-hand side,
sin 6θ = 3sin 2θ − 4 sin 3 2θ , so that

(a) Using the double-angle formula (2.37a), we have
2cos θ cos 2θ + 2sin θ cos θ = 2cos θ(3cos2 θ −1) , so the first solution is cos θ = 0 , i.e. θ = π2 ,
3π 2
. If cos θ ≠ 0 , we can divide by 2cos θ
to give
cos 2θ + sin θ = 3cos2 θ −1 , which again using the double-angle formula and writing everything in terms of sin θ , reduces to the quadratic sin 2 θ + sin θ −1 = 0 which leads directly to solutions θ = 0.666 and 2.475 radians. (b) Combining the first and third terms using (2.36) gives
2sin 2θ cos θ − 2sin θ cos θ = 0 ,
S2.6
so the first solution is
cos θ = 0 ⇒ θ = π2 ,
3π 2
.
If cos θ ≠ 0 , then dividing gives
sin θ(2cos θ −1) = 0 . The two possibilities are
sin θ = 0 ⇒ θ = π , or cos θ = 12 ⇒ θ = π3 ,
5π 3

So finally
θ = π3 , 2.12

and

We have
sin kθ − sin θ ≡ 2sin[ 12 (k −1)θ]cos[ 12 (k + 1)θ] . Thus one of the two brackets must be zero. The first bracket is zero if 1 2
(k −1)θ = ±nπ, i.e. kθ = ±nπ + θ ⇒ θ = ± 2nπ (k −1) ,
for all integer n and k ≠ 1 . The second bracket is zero if 1 2
(k + 1)θ = ± 12 (2n + 1)π, i.e. kθ = ±(2n + 1)π − θ ⇒ θ = ±(2n + 1)π (k + 1) ,
for all integer n and k ≠ −1 . 2.13
From the equation of the straight line x = (p −y cos θ) sin θ and substituting into the equation for the hyperbola gives

which after simplifying gives a 2 sin 2 θ −b 2 cos2 θ = p 2 , as required.

The y-co-ordinate of the point of intersection is y = −B 2A , i.e.
y=

and hence

p −y cos θ a 2 sin θ = . sin θ p
Equation (2.37c) may be used on the left-hand side to give
1 + sin θ + cos θ 1 + (2sin θ 2cos θ 2) + (2cos2 θ 2 −1) ≡ 1 + sin θ − cos θ 1 + (2sin θ 2cos θ 2)−(1 − 2sin 2 θ 2) ≡ 2.15
cos θ 2 2cos2 θ 2 1 + cos θ ≡ ≡ . sin θ 2 2sin θ 2cos θ 2 sin θ
From the sine rule
a b a sin B . = ⇒ sin A = sin A sin B b So A = arcsin ⎡⎢5sin(0.5) 4 ⎤⎥ = 0.643 rad = 36.84 0 and hence C = 1.999 rad = 114.510 . ⎣ ⎦ Again using the sine rule, c = b sinC sin B = 7.59 cm . 2.16
The lengths of the sides are: a = BC = (5 − 7)2 + (6 − 2)2 = 20
and likewise
b = AC = 37 and c = AB = 25 . Then using the cosine rule
cosA =
giving
b 2 +c 2 −a 2 21 = , 2bc 5 37
A = 0.809 rad = 46.350 . In a similar way, B = 1.391 rad = 79.700
and

C = 0.942 rad = 53.97 . 2.17
For n = 0 the results are trivial. So we just need to show that if both are true for any n ≥ 0 they are true for m = n + 1 . Suppose both results are true for n. Then
sin[(2m + 1)θ] = sin[(2n + 1)θ + 2θ] = sin[(2n + 1)θ]cos 2θ + cos[(2n + 1)θ]sin 2θ ⎡ cos[(2n + 1)θ]⎤ ⎥ 2sin θ cos2 θ, = sin[(2n + 1)θ][1 − 2sin 2 θ]+ ⎢ ⎢ ⎥ cos θ ⎣ ⎦ which is a polynomial in sin θ since both sin[(2n + 1)θ] and cos[(2n + 1)θ] cos θ are polynomials and cos2 θ = 1 − sin 2 θ . Similarly,

⎡ cos[(2m + 1)θ]⎤ ⎡ cos[(2n + 1)θ + 2θ]⎤ ⎢ ⎥=⎢ ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ cos θ cos θ ⎣ ⎦ ⎣ ⎦ ⎡ cos[(2n + 1)θ]⎤ ⎥ cos 2θ + sin[(2n + 1)θ]sin 2θ =⎢ ⎢ ⎥ cos θ cos θ ⎣ ⎦ ⎡ cos[(2n + 1)θ]⎤ ⎥ [1 − 2sin 2 θ]+ sin[(2n + 1)θ]2sin θ cos θ , =⎢ ⎢ ⎥ cos θ cos θ ⎣ ⎦

since

sin[(2n + 1)θ] are
(a)
log(xy) + 3 log(x y) + 2 log(y x) = log x + logy + 3 log x − 3 logy + 2 logy − 2 log x = 2 log x = log(x 2 ) (b) 6 log x 1/3 + 2 log(1 x) = 2 log x + 2 log1 − 2 log x = 0 2.19
(a) lhs = log(x 2 − 9) = 3 , so x 2 − 9 = 103 and x = 1009 = 31.765 . (b) ln(log x) = −3 , so log x = e −3 ≡ p and x = 10p . Using p = 0.049787068 , gives x = 1.122 .
2.20
(a) Using log x = ln x ln10 , we have
⎛ 1 ⎞⎟ 5 ln10 ⎟⎟ = 5, i.e. ln x = ln x ⎜⎜⎜1 + = 3.486 ⎜⎝ ln10 ⎟⎠ 1 + ln10 and hence x = exp(3.486) = 32.66. (b) We have
9 ln 2 − 9 ln x − ln x = −6, i.e. ln x =
9 10
(ln 2 + 23 ) = 1.224
and hence x = exp(1.224) = 3.401. 2.21 (a) Writing each of the hyperbolic functions in terms of exponentials gives:
sech x =
2 , x e +e −x
cosech x =
2 e x +e −x , coth x = . e x −e −x e x −e −x
Then cosech x > sech x if
S2.9
2 2 > x , or 4e −x > 0 , −x e −e e +e −x x
which is true for x > 0 . Likewise, coth x > cosech x if
e x +e −x 2 > x , or ex +e −x > 2 . x −x −x e −e e −e To prove the latter, consider the expression
ex +e −x − 2 = (e 2x + 1 − 2e x )e −x = (e x −1)2e −x > 0 , since both terms are greater than zero. So ex +e −x > 2 . (b) The right-hand side expressed in terms of exponentials is 3
4cosh 3x − 3cosh x = 4 ⎡⎢ 12 (e x +e −x )⎤⎥ − 3 ⎡⎢ 12 (e x +e −x )⎤⎥ ⎣ ⎦ ⎣ ⎦ 3x x −x −3x 1 = 2 (e + 3e + 3e +e )− 32 (e x +e −x ) = 12 (e 3x +e −3x ) = cosh 3x, where we have used the binomial expansion. 2.22
(a) In terms of exponentials, the equation is
3(e 2x +e −2x ) + 2(e 2x −e −2x ) = 6 , which gives
5e 2x − 6 +e −2x = (5e x −e −x )(e x −e −x ) = 0 . So, either (5e x −e −x ) = 0 ⇒ 5e x = e −x , which taking logs gives x = − 12 ln 5 , or
(e x −e −x ) = 0 , i.e. x = 0. (b) From (2.64),
arctanh x =
1 ⎛⎜1 + x ⎞⎟ ⎟⎟ , ln ⎜ 2 ⎜⎜⎝ 1 − x ⎟⎠
so we need to solve
⎛1 + x ⎞⎟ ⎟ = 2 ln 5 = ln 25 , ln ⎜⎜⎜ ⎜⎝ 1 − x ⎟⎟⎠ i.e. (1 + x) = 25(1 − x) , which gives x = 12 13 . (c) In terms of exponentials, the equation is

16c 2 − 24 ≥ 0 ⇒ c ≥ 3 2 or c ≤ − 3 2 . 2.23
Using (2.66b) we have
cosh 4x = 2cosh 2(2x)−1 and hence
cosh 4x + 4 cosh 2x −125 = 0 may be written
cosh 2 2x + 2cosh 2x − 63 = 0 , i.e.
(cosh 2x + 9)(cosh 2x − 7) = 0 . But since cosh 2x > 0 for all x, the only solution is cosh 2x = 7 . Finally, using the definition (2.57),
x = ± 12 ln(7 + 2 12) = ±1.317 . 2.24
If the straight line is y = mx +c where m and c are constants, then at P1 ,
2at1 = mat12 +c and at P2 ,
2at2 = mat22 +c . Solving these equations gives
m=
2 t1 + t2
and
c = 2at1 −
and hence, after simplifying,
y=
2 (x + at1t2 ) . t1 + t2
But the line also passes through the focus (a, 0) , so
0=
2a (1 + t1t2 ) t1 + t2
and hence t1t2 = −1 .
S2.11

The equation of the tangent is that of a straight line,
y = m1x +c1
(1)
which must pass through (x,y) = (1, 2) , so that
m1 +c1 = 2 .
(2)
In addition, it must be compatible with the equation of the parabola at the single point (1, 2) and no other. Substituting (1) into y 2 = 4x gives
m12x 2 + (2m1c1 − 4)x +c12 = 0, which is of the form ax 2 +bx +c = 0 , and has only a single real solution if b 2 = 4ac , i.e. if (2m1c1 − 4)2 = 4m12c12 , which reduces to
16(1 − m1c1 ) = 0, so that m1c1 = 1 . Together with (2), this requires m1 = c1 = 1 , so the equation of the tangent is y = x + 1. Since the normal y = m2x +c2 is at right angles to the tangent,
m1m2 = −1 , so that m2 = −1 ; and since it must pass through (x,y) = (1, 2) , then c2 = 3 . Hence the equation of the normal is
y = −x + 3.

We have to show that given any ε > 0 , we can find a δ > 0 such that x 2 − 4 < ε when 0 < x − 2 < δ . Choose δ ≤ 1 , so that 0 < x − 2 < 1 . Then

(b) Since
x 3 − 3x 2 + 3x − 2 x 3 − 3x 2 + 3x − 2 = , (x + 5)(x − 2) x 2 + 3x −10 there are discontinuities at x = 2 and –5. At x = 2 , the numerator is zero by inspection and so
x 3 − 3x 2 + 3x − 2 = (x − 2)(ax 2 +bx +c) by the factor theorem and on equating coefficients,
x 3 − 3x 2 + 3x − 2 = (x − 2)(x 2 − x −1) . Hence
f (x) =
(x − 2)(x 2 − x −1) , (x + 5)(x − 2)
and the discontinuity at x = 2 , where f (2) is ill-defined, can be removed by setting
f (x = 2) =
x 2 − x −1 1 = . x + 5 x=2 7
At x = −5 , the discontinuity is non-removable because x 3 − 3x 2 + 3x − 2 ≠ 0 as x → −5 , so that the limits as x → 5−, 5+ diverge. 3.5
(a) There is a discontinuity at x = 0 where f (0) = 0 0 is ill-defined. Since f (x) → 0 as x → 0−, 0+ , it can be removed by defining f (0) ≡ 0 . (b) There are discontinuities at x = ±3 , where the denominator vanishes. For x ≠ ±3 we can write
f (x) =
x +3
4 + x2 + 7
4 − x2 + 7 4 + x2 + 7
=
4 + x2 + 7 . 3−x
For x → +3 , f (x) diverges, so the discontinuity is non-removable. For f (x) → −3 ,
f (x) → −(4 + 2) 6 and the discontinuity can be removed by defining f (−3) ≡ −(4 + 2) 6 . 3.6

Differentiating with respect to x gives

dy dy + 3x + 3y − 8 = 0 , dx dx
i.e. the gradient is
dy 6x + 3y − 8 = dx 3(4 − x) and at (x,y) = (1,1) , dy dx = 1 9 . So the equation of the tangent at this point is
y −1 = 19 (x −1) ⇒ 9y − x − 8 = 0. The tangent therefore intercepts the x axis at −8 and the y axis at 8 9 . 3.15
Differentiating with respect to x gives

so that
dy y 2 − 4x = 2 , dx 3y − 2xy −1 which at (x,y) = (2,−1) is dy dx = −7 6 . The normal to the curve at (x,y) = (2,−1) therefore has a gradient 6 7 and an equation 7y = 6x +c , where c is a constant. This can be found from the fact that the normal passes through the point (x,y) = (2,−1) , which gives c = −19 and hence 7y = 6x −19 . 3.16
Using the notation of (3.40b), we have as x → 0+ ,
f (0)(x) = x 2 → 0; f (1)(x) = 2x → 0; f (2)(x) = 2 → 2 , and
f (n) = 0 → 0, (n ≥ 3), whereas for x < 0 , we have as x → 0− ,
f (0)(x) = x sin x → 0; f (1)(x) = x cosx + sin x → 0; f (2)(x) = 2cosx − x sin x → 2 , and
f (3)(x) = −3sin x − x cosx → 0; f (4)(x) = −4 cosx + x sin x → −4 . Only the derivatives f (1), f (2) and f (3) exist as x → 0 , because

(a) The result is trivially satisfied for n = 1 , using (1.27a). The proof then follows by induction. Suppose it is valid for a given n. Then

where we have set N = n + 1 and r ′ = r + 1 . On relabeling, the dummy index r ′ → r in the second term, this becomes N −1 ⎡⎛ ⎞ ⎛ F (N ) = f N −r g r + ∑ ⎢⎢⎜⎜⎜ N −1 ⎟⎟⎟ + ⎜⎜⎜ N −1 ⎟⎠ ⎜⎝ r −1 ⎝ r r=1 ⎢⎣⎜ N ⎛ ⎞ = ∑ ⎜⎜⎜ N ⎟⎟⎟ f N −r (x)g r (x), ⎝ r ⎟⎠ r=0 ⎜

where we have used (1.27a,c). Hence if the Leibniz formula holds for any n it holds for N = n + 1 ; and since it holds for n = 1 , it therefore holds for all n. (b) Setting f = ln x and g = x 2 , we have
f (0) = ln x, f (1) = 1 x, f (2) = −1 x 2 , f (3) = 2 x 3 , f (4) = −6 x 4 and

On differentiating,
f ′(x) = (cosx − sin x)e −x
and
f ′′(x) = −2cosx e −x .
Using (2.29) and (2.31), f ′(x) = 0 gives
sin x = cosx = cos(π 2 − x) , implying x = π 2 − x + 2πn , i.e. x = π 4 + nπ as the positions of the extrema. For
x = π 4 + 2πn , cosx is positive and, and hence f ′′(x) , are negative and so the extrema are maxima. For x = 5π 4 + 2πn , cosx is negative, and hence f ′′(x) is positive, so they are minima. 3.22
This is shown in the figure below. By writing the function as
y(x) =
x3 (x − 2)(x + 1)
it can be seen that there are singular points at x = 2 and x = −1 . Also as x → ∞ , y(x) → x and so y(x) → ±∞ as x → ±∞ . Finally, differentiating y(x) and setting the result to zero, yields three turning points: x = 1 + 7, 1 − 7, 0 . By forming second derivatives these can be shown to be minimum, a maximum and a point of inflexion, respectively.

Differentiating using the quotient rule gives
dy (x 2 + x − 2)(4x − 5)−(2x 2 − 5x − 25)(2x + 1) = dx (x 2 + x − 2)2 7x 2 + 42x + 35 7(x + 1)(x + 5) = = (x 2 + x − 2)2 (x 2 + x − 2)2
,
so there stationary points at x = −1 and x = −5 . To investigate their nature, we find the second derivative. Using the quotient rule again this is
d2y 14(x 2 + x − 2)2(x + 3)−14(x + 1)(x + 5)(2x + 1)(x 2 + x − 2) = dx 2 (x 2 + x − 2)4 14(x + 3) = 2 at x = −1 and x = −5. (x + x − 2)2 At x = −1 , d2x dx 2 > 0 and so this is a minimum, and at x = −5 , d2x dx 2 < 0 and so this is a maximum. The function is discontinuous at points where the denominator vanishes, i.e. at x = 1 and x = −2 . Finally, to find the limits as x → ±∞ only the highest powers of x need be retained, which gives
lim f (x) = 2.

The figure below shows a graph of the function y(x) = x 3 − 4x 2 + x + 4 for the range −1 ≤ x ≤ 4 . The solutions of the equation are where the curve cuts the x-axis, i.e. at the approximate values x = −0.8, 1.5 and 3.4 .

For all x, f (x) ≤ exp(−x 2 ) , with
f (x) = exp(−x 2 ) at 10πx = 2πn , i.e., x = ±0.2n, (n = 0,1, 2,…) , and
f (x) = −exp(−x 2 ) at 10πx = π(2n + 1) , i.e., x = ±0.1(2n + 1), (n = 0,1, 2,…) . Thus f (x) oscillates between ± exp(−x 2 ) , with zeros at
10πx = (2n + 1)π 2 , i.e. x = ±0.05(2n + 1),(n = 0,1, 2,…) . The function is plotted below in the figure below as a solid line. Because cos(10πx) oscillates rapidly compared to exp(−x 2 ) , the maxima and minima are close to, but not exactly at, the points where f (x) = ± exp(−x 2 ) , the latter being shown as dashed lines.

Since A lies on the major axis, y = 0 and so at A ,
x=

where we have used (a 2 −b 2 ) = a 2e 2 , and since F is the point (ae, 0) ,
AF = ae −e 2x1 . By definition,
PF = ePN = e (a e − x1 ) = a −ex1
so

ePF = ae −e 2x1 and hence AF = ePF . 3.27

υ(t = 5) = 86.95 ms−1,
x(t = 5) = 178.4 m.
For t ′ = t − 5 ≥ 0 , the rocket moves with constant acceleration –g, so that
υ(t ′) = 86.95 − gt ′ and using x(t ′ = 0) = 178.27 m to fix the constant of integration,
x(t ′) = 86.95t ′ − 12 g(t ′)2 + 178.4. The maximum height is reached when υ(t ′) = 0 , i.e. at t ′ = 86.95 g = 8.86 s, when

(1 −y)SN = a + xy + xy 2 ++ xy N −(a + Nx)y N +1 = a −(a + Nx)y N +1 + xy(1 + y ++ y N −1 ) = a −(a + Nx)y N +1 +
xy(1 −y N ) (1 −y)
using (5.10). Hence
SN =
a −(a + Nx)y N +1 xy(1 −y N ) + , (1 −y) (1 −y)2
and if y < 1 ,
lim SN =

Writing the series as
∞
∑u n=0
n
and rn =
un+1 un
in each case, we have the following.
(a)
rn =
1 [2 + 3(n + 1)2 ] 1 → < 1 as n → ∞, 2 3 3 2 + 3n
so by d’Alembert’s test the series converges. (b) 2
⎛ n ⎞⎟ ⎟ → 2 > 1 as n → ∞ , rn = 2 ⎜⎜⎜ ⎜⎝ n + 1 ⎟⎟⎠ so by d’Alembert’s test the series diverges. (c)
in this case
rn → 1 , so d’Alembert’s test cannot be used. However,
un → 1 4 ≠ 0 as n → ∞ , so the series diverges by (5.15). (d) r
1 ⎛⎜ n + 1 ⎞⎟ ⎟⎟ → 0 as n → ∞ , rn = ⎜ (n + 1) ⎜⎜⎝ n ⎟⎠ so by d’Alembert’s test the series converges.
S5.2
5.6
(a)
un+1 un
=
(n + 1)2 x → x as n → ∞ , n2
and so the series converges for x < 1 . (b)
un+1 un
⎛ n + 3 ⎞⎟ ⎟ → 2(x −1) as n → ∞ , = 2(x −1)⎜⎜⎜ ⎜⎝ n + 4 ⎟⎟⎠
and so the series converges for 2(x −1) < 1 , i.e. for 1 2 < x < 3 2 . (c) un+1 un = 2x . So the series converges if 2x < 1 , i.e. x ln 2 < 0 or all x < 0 . 5.7
In each case, the functions are of the form f g , with f → 0 and g → 0 in the limit. So we use l’Hôpital’s rule
⎡ f (x) ⎤ ⎡ ′ ⎤ ⎥ = lim ⎢ f (x) ⎥ . lim ⎢ ⎢ ⎥ x→1 g(x) x→1 ⎢ g ′(x) ⎥ ⎣ ⎦ ⎣ ⎦ (a)
⎡ 4 ⎤ ⎡ f ′(x) ⎤ ⎥ = lim ⎢ 5x + 6x ⎥ = 11 . lim ⎢ ⎥ x→1 ⎢ g ′(x) ⎥ x→1 ⎢ 2 ⎢⎣ 2x ⎥⎦ ⎣ ⎦
(b)
⎡ f ′(x) ⎤ ⎡ ⎤ ⎥ = lim ⎢ π cos πx ⎥ = −π . lim ⎢ ⎥ x→1 ⎢ g ′(x) ⎥ x→1 ⎢ ⎣ ⎦ ⎣ 1x ⎦
(c) We need to differentiate g = arcsin(x −1) , i.e. x −1 = sin g . This gives
dx dg = cosg = (1 − sin 2 g = 2x − x 2 and so
g′ = 1
(2x − x 2 ) → 1 as x → 1 .
Therefore,
⎡ 2 ⎤ ⎡ arcsin x ⎤ ⎥ = lim ⎢⎢ 1 2x − x ⎥⎥ = −1 . lim ⎢ x→1 ⎢ sinh(1 − x) ⎥ x→1 −cosh(1 − x) ⎢⎣ ⎥⎦ ⎣ ⎦ (d)
5.8
⎡ f ′(x) ⎤ ⎡ ⎤ ⎥ = lim ⎢ −π sin πx ⎥ = 1 lim ⎢ x→1 ⎢ g ′(x) ⎥ x→1 ⎢ 2π sin πx cos πx ⎥ ⎣ ⎦ ⎣ ⎦ 2
(a) Writing the functions in the form f g , we have
S5.3
f ′ = 12 (x + 5)−1/2 → 1 (2 5)
f = x + 5 − 5 → 0, g = x → 0, g ′ = 1 → 1. Therefore, by l’Hôpital’s rule,
⎡ x +5 − 5⎤ ⎥ = lim ⎡⎢ f ′ ⎤⎥ = 1 . lim ⎢⎢ ⎥ x→0 ⎢ g ′ ⎥ x→0 x ⎢⎣ ⎥⎦ ⎣ ⎦ 2 5 (b) Similarly,
2 ln(1 + x) → 0, 1+x x g ′ = arcsin x + → 0, 1−x2 f′=
f = ln 2(1 + x) → 0, g = x arcsin x,
using equation (3.27). So we must use (5.29a), where
2 2 ln(1 + x) − → 2 as x → 0, 2 (1 + x) (1 + x)2 2 1 x g ′′ = − → 2 as x → 0. 2 1/2 2 (1 − x 2 )3/2 (1 − x ) f ′′ =
Therefore
⎡ ln 2(1 + x) ⎤ ⎥ = 1. lim ⎢⎢ x→0 x arcsin x ⎥ ⎢⎣ ⎥⎦ 5.9
If f (x) = cosx , then for all n ≥ 0 ,
f (2n)(x) = (−1)n cosx ,
f (2n+1)(x) = (−1)n+1 sin x
by (3.42). Hence on substituting in (5.37b), we have f (N +1)(x) ≤ 1 for all N and
RN ≤
(x − π 4)N +1 →0 (N + 1)!
as N → ∞ for all x by (5.20). Hence the Taylor series is valid for all x. Substituting for the derivatives in (5.37a) using cos(π 4) = sin(π 4) = 1
2 gives
2n 2n+1 ⎤ ⎡ (−1)n (x − π 4) (−1)n+1(x − π 4) ⎥ ⎢ cos(x − π 4) = ∑ ⎢ + ⎥ (2n)! ⎥ n=0 ⎢ 2 2(2n + 1)! ⎣ ⎦ 1 (x − π 4) (x − π 4)2 (x − π 4)3 = − − + + 2 2 2 2 6 2 ∞

Taylor’s theorem (5.21) gives
S5.4
(−1)n x 2n+1 + RN n=0 (2n + 1)! N
sin x = ∑ for x 0 = 0, x = h , where
RN =
x 2N +2 (−1)N +1 sin(θx) , (2N + 2)!
0 < θ 1 , so that
(cosh α)n → ∞ as n → ∞ n and the series diverges by (5.15). Thus (c) is conditionally convergent for α = 0 . 5.23
(a)
1 → 0 as n → ∞ , ln(αn)
so that the series converges by (5.61). However,
1 1 > ln(αn) n for large n, and, as shown in Example 5.12, ∞

∑n n=1
diverges. Hence ∞

∑ ln αn n=1
diverges by the comparison test and therefore the series is only conditionally convergent. (b)
(n + α) 1 → ≠ 0 as n → ∞ , (2αn + 3) 2α
so the series does not converge. n
(c)
(ln αn)n ⎛⎜ ln α + ln n ⎞⎟ ⎟⎟ → 0 as n → ∞ , = ⎜⎜ ⎟⎠ ⎜⎝ n n/2 n

so that the series is conditionally convergent. (d) By d’Alembert’s ratio test,
rn =

so that the series is absolutely convergent.

gives z1−1 = 1 17 −(4 17)i .
Let z1 = x1 + y1 and z 2 = x 2 + y 2 . (a)
(z1z 2 ) = (x1x 2 − y1y 2 ) + i(x1y 2 − x 2y1 ) and (z1z 2 )* = (x1x 2 − y1y 2 )− i(x1y 2 − x 2y1 ) .
But
z1*z 2* = (x1 − iy1 )(x 2 − iy 2 ) = (x1x 2 − y1y 2 )− i(x1y 2 − x 2y1 ). (b) 2
z1z 2 = (x1x 2 − y1y 2 )2 + (x1y 2 − x 2y1 )2 = x12x 22 + y12y 22 + x12y 22 + x 22y12 . But,

z1 + z 2 = (x1 + x 2 )2 + (y1 + y 2 )2 = x12 + x 22 + 2x1x 2 + y12 + y 22 + 2y1y 2 .

So the inequality is true if (A)−(B) ≤ 0 , i.e.
x12x 22 + y12y 22 −(x12 + y12 )1/2(x 22 + y 22 )1/2 ≤ 0, or, on squaring,

i.e.

z1 − z 2 ≥ z1 − z 2 . 6.3

The general polynomial equation is
anz n + an−1z n−1 + an−2z n−2 ++ a 0 = 0 , and taking its complex conjugation gives
(anz n + an−1z n−1 + an−2z n−2 ++ a 0 )* = 0 . Then using the result (z1z 2 )* = z1*z 2* and the fact that the coefficients are real, gives
an (z * )n + an−1(z * )n−1 + an−2(z * )n−2 ++ a 0 = 0 , which shows if z is a root then so is its complex conjugate z * . 6.5

z −1 = (z −1)(z * −1) = (x + iy −1)(x − iy −1) = (x −1)2 + y 2 = 2, which is the equation of a circle centre (1,0) and radius 2. (b) z + 1 = (x + 1)2 + y 2 and z −i = x 2 + (y −1)2 . Squaring both sides gives
x 2 + y 2 + 2x + 1 = x 2 + y 2 − 2y + 1 , with solution x = −y , which is a straight line passing through (0, 0) with gradient

and as the modulus of this ratio is always less than 1 as n → ∞ , the series converges for all values of z. 6.8
(a) Using Euler’s formula,
e iπ/2 + 2e iπ/4 = i + 2[cos(π 4) + i sin(π 4)] = 1 + 2i. Therefore z = 5 and arg(z) = tan−1 2 = 1.11 rad . (b)
(1 + i)e iπ/6 = (1 + i)[cos(π 6) + i sin(π 6)] = (1 + i)( 3 + i) 2 =( 3 −1) 2 + i ( 3 + i) 2. Hence z = 2 and arg(z) = tan−1[( 3 + 1) ( 3 −1)] = 1.31 rad . (c)

cos 2θ −i sin 2θ = cos(−2θ) + i sin(−2θ) = e −2iθ and
cos5θ + i sin 5θ = e 5iθ , so that
cos 2θ − i sin 2θ e −2iθ = 5iθ = e −7iθ = cos(7θ)− i sin(7θ). cos5θ + i sin 5θ e (b) From de Moivre’s theorem,

cos 4θ + i sin 4θ = (c + is)4 = c 4 + i4c 3s + 6i 2c 2s 2 + 4i 3cs 3 + i 4s 4 = (c 4 − 6c 2s 2 + s 4 ) + i(4c 3s − 4i 3cs 3 ), where c = cos θ and s = sin θ . Now cos 4θ = Re[(c + is)4 ] = c 4 − 6c 2s 2 + s 4 , and
sin 4θ = Im[(c + is)4 ] = 4c 3s − 4cs 3 , So, finally,

Taking differentials of the defining relations gives

Now ∂u ∂x is the change in u with respect to x with y constant, i.e. dy = 0 . So setting dy = 0 in these equations and eliminating dw gives

We will use the condition (7.19a) to establish whether a differential is exact, using the notation of that equation. (a) We have,
A=
y2 x2 and , B = (x + y)2 (x + y)2
so that
∂A 2y 2y 2 2xy ∂B , = − = = 2 3 3 ∂y ∂x (x + y) (x + y) (x + y) which implies that the differential is exact, with
∂f y2 ∂f x2 =A= and = B = . ∂x ∂y (x + y)2 (x + y)2 Integrating ∂f ∂x gives
f (x,y) = −
y2 +c(y), x +y
where c(y) is an arbitrary function of y. Hence differentiating with respect to y gives
7.6
∂f 2y y2 x2 ′ . =− + + c (y) = B = ∂y (x + y) (x + y)2 (x + y)2 Hence
c ′(y) =
2y (x 2 −y 2 ) + = 1, (x + y) (x + y)2
so that c(y) = y + k , where k is an integration constant. Finally,
f (x,y) =
−y 2 xy +y +k = + k. (x + y) (x + y)
(b) We have,
A = 2x ln(xy) + x,
B = x2 y ,
so that
∂A 2x ∂B = = ∂y y ∂x and df is an exact differential with
∂f = 2x ln(xy) + x, ∂x
∂f x2 = . ∂y y
Integrating the second of these relations gives
f = x 2 ln y +c(x) , so that
∂f = 2x ln y + c ′(x) = 2x ln(xy) + x ∂x on comparing with B. Hence
c ′(x) = 2x ln x + x and
c(x) = x 2 ln x + k , giving finally
f (x,y) = x 2 ln x + x 2 ln y + k = x 2 ln(xy) + k, where k is an arbitrary constant. 7.10
(a) We have,
∂z ∂z dx dy = 4x + 3y 3, = 9xy 2 + 16y 3, = cost, = −sin t . ∂x ∂y dt dt

So, using (7.20), with x1 = x and x 2 = y , 2 dz ∂f dx i =∑ = y(4x + 3y 3 )− xy 2(9x + 16y). dt i=1 ∂x i dt

∂z 1 ∂z x dx 1 dy 1 = y + + y ln (x y ), = −x − 2 + x ln (x y ), = , =− . ∂x y ∂y dt t dt t y Hence from (7.20),

The equation is satisfied if f is homogeneous of degree k, i.e. if
f (λx,λy,λz) = λk f (x,y,z) . We then apply this to the given forms. (a) f is homogeneous of order k = 3 , and hence the equation is satisfied. (b) f is not homogeneous, and hence the equation is not satisfied. (c) f may be written
⎛ xy 2 ⎞ f = ln x + 2 ln y − 3 ln z + 4 = ln ⎜⎜⎜ 3 ⎟⎟⎟ + 4 , ⎜⎝ z ⎟⎠ and so f is homogeneous of order zero, and the equation is satisfied.
7.8
(d) The proof of Euler’s theorem in the text does not rely on k being an integer. In this case the equation is satisfied with k = 1 2 , as may be verified by direct substitution. 7.12

At stationary points
∂f = cosx sin y sin(x + y) + sin x sin y cos(x + y) ∂x = sin y cos(2x + y) = 0, and similarly
∂f = sin x cos(x + 2y) = 0. ∂y Since sin x ≠ 0 and sin y ≠ 0 within the square, we have
cos(2x + y) = 0 = cos(x + 2y) and hence the possibilities
2x + y = π, 2π and x + 2y = π, 2π. If 2x + y = π, x + 2y = 2π , then x = 0,y = π , while if 2x + y = 2π, x + 2y = π we have x = π,y = 0 . Neither lie inside the square. If 2x + y = π = x + 2y , then
x = y = π 3 , and f = sin 2(π 3)sin(2π 3) = 3 3 8. If 2x + y = 2π = x + 2y , then x = y = 2π 3 and
f = sin 2(2 π 3)sin(4π 3) = −3 3 8. Finally, since f = 0 along the boundaries x = 0,y = 0,x = π,y = π , these are the maximum and minimum values possible. 7.19
The first derivatives of f are
∂f = e x−y ⎡⎢(2x + y) + (x 2 + xy + y 2 )⎤⎥ , ⎣ ⎦ ∂x and
∂f = e x−y ⎡⎢(x + 2y)−(x 2 + xy + y 2 )⎤⎥ . ⎣ ⎦ ∂y The condition for a stationary point is ∂f ∂x = ∂f ∂y = 0 , so adding the two equations above gives
7.13
3e x−y (x + y) = 0 , i.e. x = −y . Substituting this back into the equation ∂f ∂x = 0 , gives
(2x − x) + (x 2 − x 2 + x 2 ) = 0, i.e. x = 0 or x = −1 . Thus there are stationary points at (x,y) = (0, 0) and (−1,1) . To classify these, we first calculate the second derivatives,
∂2 f = e x−y ⎡⎢(2 + 2x + y) + (2x + y + x 2 + xy + y 2 )⎤⎥ , ⎣ ⎦ ∂x 2 ∂2 f = e x−y ⎡⎢(2 − x − 2y)−(x + 2y − x 2 − xy −y 2 )⎤⎥ , ⎣ ⎦ ∂y 2 ∂2 f = e x−y ⎡⎢(1 − 2x −y) + (x + 2y − x 2 − xy −y 2 )⎤⎥ . ⎣ ⎦ ∂x ∂y At (x,y) = (0, 0) ,
∂ 2 f ∂x 2 = 2 , ∂ 2 f ∂y 2 = 2 and ∂ 2 f ∂x ∂y = 1 , so from (7.40a,b), this is a maximum. At (x,y) = (−1,1) ,
∂ 2 f ∂x 2 = e −2 , ∂ 2 f ∂y 2 = e −2 and ∂ 2 f ∂x ∂y = 2e −2 , so from (7.41), this is a saddle point. *7.20
There is only one constraint, so from (7.45) we define
F(x,y) = f + λg , where g(x,y) = x 2 − 2y − 2 . Then the stationary points are solutions of (7.46), i.e.
∂F ∂f ∂g ∂F ∂f ∂g = +λ = 2x + 2xλ = 0, and = +λ = −2y − 2λ = 0. ∂x ∂x ∂x ∂y ∂y ∂y The first of these equations gives either x = 0 or λ = −1 . While the second gives y = −λ . For x = 0 , the constraint equation gives y = −1 , so the stationary point is
(x,y) = (0,−1) . For λ = −1 , we have y = −λ and the constraint equation gives
x 2 = 4 , so x = ±2 and the stationary points are (x,y) = (±2,1) . *7.21
The ellipsoid is centred on the origin, and the largest box will have its vertices (±x,± y,± z) on the surface of the ellipsoid, so we have to maximise
7.14
V = 8xyz subject to the constraint
g(x,y,z) =
x2 y2 z2 + + −1 = 0 . a 2 b2 c 2
Forming the function
F =V + λg , we have
∂F 2λx = 8yz + 2 = 0 ∂x a or
V + 2λ x 2 a 2 = 0. Similarly, from ∂F ∂y = 0, ∂F ∂z = 0 , one finds
V + 2λ
y2 z2 = 0 and V + 2λ = 0. b2 c2
Hence
x2 y2 z2 V 1 = 2 = 2 =− = , 2 2λ 3 a b c on applying the constraint. So as x = a

The function to me maximised is n
P = ∏ x i = x1x 2 …x n i=1
and the constraint is n
g = ∑ xi − N . i=1
So we define the function
F = P + λg
and maximise this imposing the constraint. Imposing
∂F = x 2x 3 …x n + λ = 0 , ∂x1 gives
P + λx1 = 0 , and similarly
P + λx i = 0 ,

sin θ = cos(π 2 − θ) and cos θ = sin(π 2 − θ) and hence from (2.32a),
α ≡ tan θ = cot(π 2 − θ). thus tan−1 α = θ, cot−1 α = π 2 − θ = π 2 − tan−1 α , so that finally

Referring to the figure below, BD = b − a and so BP = x(b − a) , where x is a real number in the range 0 < x < 1 . Also, AC = a + b and AP = y(a + b) , where y is also a real number in the range 0 < y < 1 . But,
AB = AP + PB = AP − BP , that is,
a = y(a + b)− x(b − a) = (x + y)a + (y − x)b . But since a and b are not collinear, x + y = 1 and y − x = 0 , i.e. x = y = 1 2 , so the diagonals bisect one another.

The position vector of a point on the line corresponding to a 0 is given by
rA = (1 + λ)i + (2 − 2λ)j + (3 + 3λ)k and similarly the position vector of a point on the line corresponding to b0 is
rB = (3 − 3µ)i + (2 + 2µ)j + (1 − µ)k . If the lines intersect, rA = rB , i.e., the equations
1 + λ = 3 − 3µ,
2 − 2λ = 2 + 2µ,
3 + 3λ = 1 − µ,
must be satisfied simultaneously. Solving the first two equations give µ = 1 and λ = −1 and by substitution this is consistent with the third equation. Thus the point of intersection is (0, 4, 0). 8.4
(a) From (8.5c), unit vectors aˆ1 and aˆ2 , corresponding to the vectors a1 and a 2 , may be written in the form
aˆ1 = a i +b j +c k and aˆ2 = α i + β j + γ k . Then
aˆ1 ⋅ aˆ2 = cos θ = aα +bβ +cγ . (b) The two vectors are
r1 = 3i − 4 j with r1 = 5, and r2 = −2i + j with r2 = 5. Then
cos θ =
r1 ⋅ r2 r1 r2
=−

, i.e. θ = 2.68 rad = 153.4 0.
If the required vector is r = ai +bj +ck , then r ⋅ r1 = r ⋅ r2 = 0 , which gives a = b = 0 . But a 2 +b 2 +c 2 = 1 , so c = 1 and the direction cosines are therefore (0, 0,1). 8.5
Referring to the figure below,
AP = AO + OP = −a + r
and
S8.2
BP = BO + OP = (a + r),
so that
(AP)2 = AP ⋅ AP = (a − r)⋅(a − r) = a 2 + r 2 − 2a ⋅ r and
(BP)2 = BP ⋅ BP = (a + r)⋅(a + r) = a 2 + r 2 + 2a ⋅ r . Then (AP)2 + (BP)2 = 2(a 2 + r 2 ) = 4a 2 , because a = r , and so (AP)2 + (BP)2 = (AB)2 which is Pythogoras’ theorem and hence the angle subtended at P is a right angle.

(a) Three vectors form a triangle if (a) one is the sum of the other two, or (b) the sum of the vectors is zero. By inspection, a = b + c , so the vectors do form a triangle. The condition that two non-zero vectors are at right angles is that their scalar product vanishes, i.e. θ = π 2 . We find, a ⋅ b = 14, a ⋅ c = 0 and b ⋅ c = −21 . Hence a is perpendicular to c and the triangle is right-angled. (b) From Figure 8.2, s = a + b , i.e. a = s − b . Squaring gives,
a ⋅ a = (s − b)⋅(s − b) = s ⋅ s + b ⋅ b − 2s ⋅ b , i.e.
a 2 = s 2 +b 2 − 2sb cos θ , where θ is the angle between s and b. The other relations may be found in a similar way. 8.7
Using (8.16a), we have
a ×b = −i − 4 j − 5k and a × b = 1 + 16 + 25 = 42 . So

ab sin θ = 12 a ×b , where θ is the angle between .
Consider the tetrahedron shown in the figure below. Using the fact that the area of a triangle with sides a and b is
1 2
a ×b , we have (note the directions are important)
v1 = 12 (a × b), v2 = 12 (b×c), v3 = 12 (c×a) . But,
v4 = 12 (c − a)×(b − a) = 12 c×b − 12 c×a − 12 a ×b = −v2 − v3 − v1, and so
v1 + v2 + v3 + v4 = 0 .
8.9
From the co-ordinates of the vertices we find the following vectors:
DA = −3i − 3j − 3k, DB = −4 j − k, DC = −4i − j + 3k . Therefore, using (8.16)
DA×DB = −9i − 3j + 12k
and
(DA×DB)⋅ DC = (−9i − 3j+ 12k)⋅(−4i − j + 3k) = 75 . The volume is 1 6 of this, i.e. 75 6 . 8.10
(a) using (8.27) we have
a ×(b×c) = (a ⋅ c)b −(a ⋅ b)c = −b − 2c = −6i − 3j. (b) From (1),
c×(r×a) = c×(b×a) which, on using (8.27) and r ⋅ c = 0 , gives
(a ⋅ c)r = (a ⋅ c)b −(b ⋅ c)a . Hence,
S8.4
r = b− 8.11
(b ⋅ c) a . (a ⋅ c)
(a) From (8.32), the angular momentum is
L = mr×(ω ×r) , and expanding this using (8.31) gives
L = m(r ⋅ r)ω −m(r ⋅ ω)r . But if r and ω are perpendicular,
(r ⋅ ω) = 0 , and v = ω ∧ r ⇒ υ = ωr , so that L = mr 2ω and hence L = mrυ . (b) Expanding the expression for a using (8.31) gives
a = ω ×(ω ×r) = (ω ⋅ r)ω − (ω ⋅ ω)r = −ω 2r again because (r ⋅ ω) = 0 . Thus the direction of a is opposite to that of r, i.e. towards the centre of the circle. Its magnitude is a = ω 2r . But ω = υ r and hence a = υ 2 r . 8.12
(a) r = 3i + 2j + 3k , so that τ = r×F = −9i + 6j + 5k . (b) τ = (r − a)×F , where a = i − j + 2k , giving τ = 3i − 2j . (c) τ z = τ ⋅ k = 5 , where τ is given in (a) above.

If a, b, and c are an orthogonal set of vectors, then
a ⋅b = a ⋅c = b⋅c = 0 and we need to show that
a ′ ⋅ b′ = a ′ ⋅ c ′ = b′ ⋅ c ′ = 0 .
S8.5

Using (8.36) and (8.33a), we have
a ′ ⋅ b′ =
(b×c)⋅(c×a) (b ⋅ c)(c ⋅ a)−(b ⋅ a)c 2 = =0 [abc]2 [abc]2
by (1). The other results, a ′ ⋅ c′ = b′ ⋅ c′ = 0 , follow in a similar way. *8.14
Using (8.36) and (8.20), we have
[ a ′b′c′] =
(b×c)⋅(c×a)×(a ×b) . [abc]3
(1)
Then using (8.33c),
[ a ′b′c′] =
1 , [abc]
and hence
a ′′ ≡
b′ × c′ (c×a)×(a ×b) = =a . [ a ′b′c′] [abc]
The corresponding relations b′′ = b and c′′ = c follow in a similar way. *8.15
(a) First form the triple scalar product
a ⋅(b×c) = (3j − k)⋅[(j + k)×(i + 2j)] = −5. Then using the relations given in (8.36) gives
a ′ = − 15 (j + k)×(i + 2j) = − 15 (2i + j − k), b′ = − 15 (i + 2j)×(3i − k) = − 15 (−2i + j− 6k), c′ = − 15 (3i − k)×(j + k) = − 15 (i − 3j + 3k). (b) Using (8.18) and (8.21), gives a ⋅ b×c = a 3 4 , while (8.36) and (8.16) give
1 1 a ′ = (j + k)×(i + k) = (i + j − k), a a 1 1 b′ = (i + k)×(i + j) = (−i + j + k), a a 1 1 c′ = (i + j)×(j + k) = (i − j + k). a a 8.16
From (8.41b), with appropriate changes in notation, we see that the minimum distance between them vanishes, i.e. they intersect if
a ⋅(c×d) = b ⋅(c×d) .
S8.6
Using the cyclic property of scalar triple products (8.20), then gives the desired result
d ⋅(a ×c) = d ⋅(b×c) . At the point of intersection, a + λc = b + µd , and hence
a ×d + λc×d = b×d , since d×d = 0 , and λa ⋅(c×d) = a ⋅(b×d) because a ⋅(a ×d) = 0 . Therefore,
λ=
a ⋅(b×d) a ⋅(c×d)
µ=
b ⋅(a ×c) . b ⋅(d×c)
and a similar argument gives

The corresponding position vectors are
p = 3i + 2j + 4k,
a = i − k,
b = −i + 2j + k .
(1)
The equation of the line through AB is
r = a + s(b − a) = (i − k) + s(−2i + 2j + 2k) and the shortest distance is given by (cf. (8.41a))
d=
(p − a)×(b − a) b−a
.
On substituting, we have
(p − a) = 2i + 2j + 3k , so that
(p − a)×(b − a) = −2i −10j + 8k and (2) gives d = 168
12 = 14 .
S8.7
(2)
From the figure above, we see that the distance
AD = p − a cos θ =
(p − a)⋅(b − a) b−a
,
and hence
s=
(p − a)⋅(b − a) AD = . (b − a)2 b−a
On substituting for (p − a) and (b − a) , we obtain s = 1 2 , so that from (1)
d = a + 12 (b − a) = j and D is the point (0,1, 0) on the y axis. 8.18
(a) The distance from a to r is a constant, and so the surface is spherical, centre A, radius λ . (b) (r − a) is perpendicular to a. Hence the surface is a plane perpendicular to a and passing through the point (ax ,ay ,az ) .
ˆ)ˆ ˆ and r −(r ⋅ n ˆ) is the vector projection of r in the direction of n n is the (c) (r ⋅ n ˆ . Therefore the surface is that of a circular cylinder component of r perpendicular to n ˆ. of radius λ with its axis parallel to n 8.19
Referring to the figure below, r = x i + y j + z k is the position vector of the point
P(x,y,z) in the plane and Q is the end point of the vector a that is also in the plane. Then PQ = a − r is perpendicular to n and hence (a − r)⋅ n = 0, i.e. r ⋅ n = n ⋅ a ,
S8.8
which is the vector form of the plane. Evaluating this in Cartesian co-ordinates using the given forms for n and a, gives
x − 2y − 3z = 7 .
The distance from the origin (0, 0, 0) to the plane is the projection of a onto n. A unit vector in the direction of n is
n 1 = (i − 2j − 3k) , n 14

The three position vectors are:
r1 = i − 2j + 2k, r2 = 3i + 2j − k, r3 = −i + 3j − k , and the general point in the plane is P(x,y,z) . Any of the lines P1P2,PP2,P1P3 etc lie in the plane. In particular,
PP1 = r − r1; P2P1 = r2 − r1; P3P1 = r3 − r1 all lie in the plane. Then by (8.22a)
(r − r1 )⋅ ⎡⎢(r2 − r1 )×(r3 − r1 )⎤⎥ = 0 ⎣ ⎦ and evaluating this gives
x + 4y + 6z = 5 , which is the equation for the plane in Cartesian co-ordinates. 8.21
On comparing to (8.45a,b) we see that the normal to the planes are
S8.9
n1 = i + 2j + 3k,
n 2 = 2i + 3j + 4k .
Since the angle θ between the planes is the same as the angle between the normals,
cos θ =
n1 ⋅ n 2 n1 n 2

20 , 14 ×29
giving θ = 1.52 rad = 87.20 . Along the line of intersection,
x + 2y + 3z + 4 = 0 and 2x + 3y + 4z + 5 = 0. Solving these gives x = z + 2 and y = −2z − 3 . So, setting z = s , we obtain
r = xi + yj + zk = (s + 2)i −(2s + 3)j + sk = (2i − 3j) + s(i − 2j + k), as the equation of the line in vector form. 8.22
The curve r is given by
r = (t 2 + 1)i + (4t − 3)j + (2t 2 − 6t)k and the tangent is therefore
dr = 2t i + 4 j + 2(2t − 3)k . dt

(a) By expanding along row 1, for example, one obtains
Δ1 = −x(x −1)(x + 2) = 0, so that x = 0,1 or − 2 . (b) If α = β , β = γ or α = γ , the determinant vanishes, since it would then have identical columns. So we can write
Δ2 = k(α − β)(β − γ)(γ − α) . Since all the terms in Δ2 are of the fourth power in α, β and γ , and since Δ2 is antisymmetric, k must be symmetric and of the first power in α, β and γ . Hence
Δ2 = c(α + β + γ)(α − β)(β − γ)(γ − α). Comparing the coefficient of, for example, βγ 3 gives c = 1 . 9.5

then, for example, the 12 element of R x (θ1 )Ry (θ2 ) is zero, whereas for Ry (θ2 )R x (θ1 ) it is sin θ1 sin θ2 . So in general the two rotation matrices do not commute (unless θ1 or
θ2 is zero). (b) Since R(θ1 , θ2 ) = Ry (θ2 )R x (θ1 ) , then
R−1(θ1, θ2 ) = R−1 (θ1 )R−1 (θ2 ) = R x (−θ1 )Ry (−θ2 ) . x y But from the explicit expressions for R x and Ry , one sees that R x (−θ1 ) = RTx (θ1 ) and
Ry (−θ2 ) = RTy (θ2 ) , so that R−1(θ1, θ2 ) = RTx (θ1 )RTy (θ2 ) = [Ry (θ2 )R x (θ1 )]T = RT (θ1 , θ2 ), as required. Finally,
det R(θ1 , θ2 ) = det[Ry (θ2 )R x (θ1 )] det Ry (θ2 )det R x (θ1 ) = 1, since det R x (θ1 ) = det Ry (θ2 ) = 1 by explicit evaluation. 9.13

Since the mass of a sample is proportional to the number of atoms it contains, from the definition of the half-life, its mass at time t is given by
S9.11
m(t) = m0 2−t
τ
,
where m0 = m(t = 0) is the initial mass. Thus at t = 6 hr,
m(6) = ma 2−4 + mb 2−2 = 90, i.e.
ma + 4mb = 90×24 . Similarly at t = 12 hr,
ma + 8mb = 30×26 . To use Cramer’s rule, we need the determinant of coefficients
Δ = 1 4 = 4. 1 8 Then, using Equations (9.72) gives

(a) the condition for a unique solution is

SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS 10 10.1
The eigenvalues are the solutions of
1 −λ 2 −1 = −(λ 3 − 5λ 2 + 5λ + 3) = 0. 1 2 −λ 0 −1 1 2 −λ Since λ = 3 is a solution, we find
λ 3 − 5λ 2 + 5λ + 3 = (λ − 3)(λ 2 − 2λ −1) = 0 , with solutions λ1 = 3, λ2 = 1 − 2 , λ3 = 1 + 2 . The associated eigenvectors u(1, 2, 3) are found by solving the equations Au(1, 2, 3) = λ1, 2,3u(1, 2, 3) and then normalising the results. This gives
⎛ ⎞ 1 ⎜⎜⎜ 1 ⎟⎟⎟ (2) (1) u = ⎜ 1 ⎟⎟⎟ , u = ⎟ 2 ⎜⎜⎜ ⎝ 0 ⎟⎠

⎛ ⎞ ⎜⎜ −(1 − 2) ⎟⎟ ⎟⎟ 1 ⎜⎜ ⎟⎟. ⎜⎜ 1 ⎟⎟ ⎜ 6 − 2 2 ⎜⎜ ⎟⎟ 2 ⎝ ⎠
Using (9.22) it is straightforward to show, for example, that (u(1), u(2) ) ≠ 0 and hence the eigenvectors are not orthogonal. 10.2
The eigenvalues are obtained from
1 −λ 3 2 = 0. 1 2 −λ 3 3 2 1 −λ Expanding the determinant gives
(1 −λ)(λ 2 − 3λ − 4) + (9λ + 16) = λ 3 − 4λ 2 −10λ −12 , = (λ − 6)(λ + 1 −i)(λ + 1 + i) = 0 with solutions λ1 = 6, λ2 = −1 + i , λ3 = −1 − i and hence 3
∑ λi = 4 = Tr A
and

The eigenvalues are obtained from
S10.1
i
= 12 = det A .
2 −λ 1 1 =0, −1 −λ 1 1 2 2 −λ i.e.,
(2 −λ)(λ 2 − 2λ − 2)−(λ − 3) + (λ − 2) = λ 3 − 4λ 2 + 2λ + 3 = (λ − 3)(λ 2 −λ −1) = 0 . The eigenvalues are thus λ1 = 3, λ2 = 1.618, λ3 = −0.618 . The inverse of A is
A−1
⎛ 2 0 −1 ⎞⎟⎟ ⎜ ⎟⎟ 1 ⎜⎜⎜ = ⎜ −3 −3 3 ⎟⎟ ⎟⎟ 3 ⎜⎜ ⎜⎜⎝ 2 3 −1 ⎟⎠⎟
from which we can find the eigenvalues in the same way as for A. They are
µ1 = 0.33 = 1 λ1 , µ2 = 0.618 = 1 λ, µ3 = −1.618 = 1 λ3 , as required. 10.4
Since taking the transpose leaves the corresponding determinant unchanged, the characteristic equation
A −λi I = 0
(1)
implies
(A −λi I)T = AT −λi I = 0 ;
so that λi is an eigenvalue of AT if it is an eigenvalue of A (and vice versa). If A−1 exists, A ≠ 0 and (1) implies
⎛ 1 −λi A ⎜⎜⎜A−1 − ⎜⎝ λi
⎞⎟ 1 I⎟⎟ = (−λi )n A A−1 − I = 0 , ⎟⎟⎠ λi
and hence
A−1 −λi−1I = 0 , so that if λi is an eigenvalue of A, λi−1 is an eigenvalue of A−1 (and vice versa). 10.5
(a) Suppose x is a non-zero eigenvector x of the matrix A with an eigenvalue λ . Then the eigenvector and its hermitian conjugate satisfy
Ax = λx,
x † A† = λ * x † ,
so that
S10.2
x†A†Ax = λ*λx†x . But A†A = I for a unitary matrix, so that 2
ˆ †x = λ*λx†x , i.e. λ = 1, x as required. (b) Suppose we have a non-zero eigenvector x such that
Ux = λx .
(1)
Then x† U† = λ*x† , which together with (1) implies 2
x†U†Ux = λ x†x . 2
2
But U† = −U* , so that λ = −1 , which is impossible since λ > 0 . Therefore no solution (1) exists. 10.6
Consider an eigenvector a such that
Aa = λa a .
(1)
Taking the hermitian conjugate gives
(Aa)† = a†A† = −a†A = λa*a† .
(2)
Multiplying (1) by a† on the left and (2) by a on the right, gives
a†Aa = λa a†a and
a†Aa = −λa*a†a, and since a†a ≠ 0 , we must have λa = −λa* , i.e. pure imaginary. Now assume there is a second eigenvector b satisfying
Ab = λb b,
λb ≠ λa .
Multiplying (3) by a† on the left and (2) by b on the right, gives
a†Ab = λb a†b = λb (a, b), and
a†Ab = −λa*a†b = λa (a, b) ,
S10.3
(3)
where in the second of these equations we have used the previous result λa = −λa* . Since λa ≠ λb , these results are only compatible if (a, b) = 0 , as required. 10.7
The characteristic equation is
i −λ 0 −i = (1 −λ)λ 2 = 0, 0 1 −λ 0 i 0 −i −λ so that the eigenvalues are λ = 0, 1 . For λ = 0 , the eigenvalue equation (A −λI)x = 0 then gives
ix −iz = 0, y = 0, ix −iz = 0, so that x = z ,y = 0 . The only linearly independent eigenvector for λ = 0 is therefore
⎛ ⎞ 1 ⎜⎜⎜ 1 ⎟⎟⎟ ⎜ 0 ⎟⎟⎟ . ⎟ 2 ⎜⎜⎜ ⎝ 1 ⎟⎠ For λ = 1 , the eigenvalue equation gives
(i −1)x − iz = 0, ix −(i + 1)z = 0, with no condition on y. Since
i −1 −i = 1 ≠ 0, i −(i + 1) (1) has no non-trivial solutions, so x = z = 0 and the eigenvector is
⎛ 0 ⎞⎟ ⎜⎜ ⎟ ⎜⎜ 1 ⎟⎟⎟ . ⎜⎜ ⎟ ⎜⎝ 0 ⎟⎟⎠ The matrix is defective because there are only two independent eigenvectors. 10.8
The eigenvalues are the solutions of
2 −λ 1 2 = −(λ 3 − 5λ 2 −λ + 5) = 0. 1 2 −λ 2 2 2 1 −λ
S10.4
(1)
with solutions λ1 = 5, λ2 = 1, λ3 = −1 , which are all real. The associated eigenvectors
u(1, 2, 3) are found by solving the equations Au(1, 2, 3) = λ1, 2,3u(1, 2, 3) and then normalising the results. This gives

Using (9.22) it is straightforward to show that (u(i ), u( j ) ) ≠ 0, (i ≠ j) and hence the eigenvectors are orthogonal. 10.9
(a) The eigenvalues are obtained from
1 −λ i = 0. −2i 1 −λ Expanding the determinant gives
λ 2 − 2λ −1 = 0 , with solutions λ1,2 = 1 ± 2 . For λ1 = 1 + 2 , the eigenvector u(1) = (x1 , x 2 )T is given from the solution of Au(1) = λ1u(1) . This gives
x 2 = −i 2x1 , and so the normalised form of u(1) is
u(1) =
1 ⎛⎜ 1 ⎜⎜ 3 ⎜⎝ −i 2
⎞⎟ ⎟⎟ . ⎟⎟ ⎠
In a similar way using λ2 = 1 − 2 , we find
u(2) =
1 ⎛⎜ 1 ⎜⎜ 3 ⎜⎝ i 2
⎞⎟ ⎟⎟ . ⎟⎟ ⎠
Using (9.22) we find that (u(1), u(2) ) = −1 3 and hence the eigenvectors are not orthogonal. (b) The eigenvalues of A are found from the solutions of
1 −λ 1 + i = (1 −λ)2 −(1 −i)(1 + i) = 0 , 1 −i 1 −λ
S10.5
i.e. λ1,2 = 1 ± 2 . For λ1 = 1 + 2 , the eigenvector u(1) = (x1 , x 2 )T is given from the solution of Au(1) = λ1u(1) . This gives
(1 + i)
x1 =

x2 ,
and so the normalized form of u(1) is
⎛ 1 ⎜⎜ (1 + i) ⎜ 2 ⎜⎜⎝ 1
u(1) =

In a similar way using λ2 = 1 − 2 , we find
u(2) =
⎛ 1 ⎜⎜ −(1 + i) ⎜ 2 ⎜⎜⎝ 1
⎞ 2 ⎟⎟⎟ . ⎟⎟ ⎠
To show that these eigenvectors are orthogonal, we calculate (u(i ), u( j ) ) for i, j = 1, 2 and show that (u(i ), u( j ) ) = δij . For example,
(u(1), u(2) ) =
1 2
( (1 −i)
⎛ 1 ⎜⎜ −(1 + i) ⎜ 2 ⎜⎜⎝ 1

The other relations follow in a similar way. 10.10

The principal axes are therefore along the lines
2x + 2y + z = 0 , 2x −y − 2z = 0, x − 2y + 2z = 0, and in terms of new variables x ′, y ′, z ′ along these axes the equation of the surface is [cf. (10.35)]

Since two terms are negative, this is a two-sheet hyperboloid, as illustrated in Figure 10.5(b). The shortest distance between the sheets occurs at x ′ = y ′ = 0 , when z ′ = ±1 , so the shortest distance is 2. Note: If the principal axes are differently labeled (e.g. the x ′, y ′, z ′ axes are associated with λ2 , λ3 and λ1 , respectively, instead of λ1 , λ2 and λ3 ) the shortest distance is always along the axis associated with λ3 = −9 , i.e. the term with positive sign in (1). *10.17 (a) The characteristic equation is
1 −λ 0 0 2 0 2 −λ −1 = (1 −λ)(λ − 4λ + 3) 0 −1 2 −λ = (1 −λ)(λ −1)(λ − 3) = 0, with eigenvalues are λ1 = λ2 = 1 , λ3 = 3 . So from (10.35) it is an ellipsoid with semiaxes a = k 1/2, b = k 1/2, c = (k 3)1/2 . It is therefore an oblate spheroid, as shown in Fig 10.4(b). (b) In this case, the characteristic equation is
1 −λ 0 0 2 −λ −1 1
−1 = −(λ 3 − 4λ 2 + 3λ + 1) = 0, 1 1 −λ
so that the eigenvalues are determined by
f (λ) = λ 3 − 4λ 2 + 3λ + 1 = 0 . Since f (1) ≠ 0 and f (−1) ≠ 0 , this does not factorise in any obvious way. However, using the curve sketching method of Section 3.5, we have
f (x → ±∞) = ±∞ and
f (1) = 1,
f (0) = 1 , f (−1) = −7 ,
S10.13
and the turning points are at
df = 3λ 2 − 8λ + 3 = 0, dλ i.e. at (8 ± 28) 6 ≈ 0.45 and 2.21, where f (0.45) ≈ 1.6 and f (2.21) ≈ −1. In addition
f (3) = 1 . So f (λ) has the behaviour sketched in the figure below where the turning points are marked by crosses, and the other calculated points by solid circles. Hence there is one negative and two distinct positive eigenvalues, so that it is a one-sheet hyperboloid of the type shown in Figure 10.5(a).
*10.18 On diagonalising A with an orthogonal matrix P −1 = P T , we have from (10.33) and (10.34) 3
Q = xT Ax = x ′T Λx ′ = ∑ λi (x i′)2 ,

If λm is the smallest eigenvalue, the smallest value of (1) occurs when (x m′ )2 = 1 and all the other terms vanish, so that Q ≥ λm as required. Finally, the condition for
Q > 0 for any non-vanishing vector is that all eigenvalues must be positive. *10.19

(b) If we write I = I 1 + I 2 + I 3 , where the subscripts refer to the three parts of the path, then for (0, 0, 0) → (1, 0, 0) , y = z = 0 and hence dy = dz = 0 , so I 1 = 0 . For

SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS 12 12.1
The electric field is E = −∇φ = −2x i + 2y j and at (2, 1) E = −4i + 2j . Thus
E = 2 5 and its direction is −2i + j . At (–3, 2), −∇φ = 6i + 4 j . Thus the direction of most rapid decrease is
3i + 2j . The directional derivative is
ˆ , where at (1, 2) dφ ds = ∇φ ⋅ u ˆ= u

(3i − j) and ∇φ = 2i − 4 j .
Thus

which at (1, 1, 1) is ∇ψ = 2i − 2j − k .

dψ 1 5 = (2i − 2j − k)⋅(i − 2j + k) = . ds 6 6 (c) ∇ψ is perpendicular to the surface ψ = constant , so the normal line is
r = (1,1,1) + (2,−2,1)t . 12.3
(a) Using (12.10), gives curl A = y i −(3z 3 − 4xz)j . (b) First form SA = 2x 3yz 3i − x 2y 2z 2 j + 3x 3yz 4 k then use (12.10) to gives
curl(SA) = x 2z(3xz 3 + 2y 2 )i + 3x 2yz 2(2x − 3z 2 )j − 3xz 2(y 2 + x 2z)k . (c) curl curl A = ∇ ×(∇ ×A) , so using the result of (a) and then again using (12.10), gives curl curl A = (−4x + 9z 2 )i + (4z −1)k . (d) grad(A ⋅ curl A) = ∇[A ⋅(∇ ×A)] , so using the result of (a) gives

curl(ψV) = ψ curl V − V× ∇ψ (b) Since αV = grad ψ and ∇ ×(∇ψ) = 0 by (12.14a), then
0 = ∇ ×(αV) = α curl V − V× ∇α . Hence
αV ⋅ curl V = V ⋅ V× ∇α = 0, since the triple product a ⋅ b×c = 0 if any pair of a, b, c are equal. 12.5
We use the two identities:
∇ ×(∇ ×a) = ∇(∇ ⋅ a)− ∇ 2a
(1)
which is (12.14c), and
∇ ×(φa) = φ(∇ ×a)− a ×(∇φ) , from Table 12.1 with φ = ∇ ⋅ a , i.e.,
∇ ×a(∇ ⋅ a) = (∇ ⋅ a)(∇ ×a)− a × ∇(∇ ⋅ a) . Using (1) and (2) in the given expression, gives
(∇ ⋅ a)(∇ ×a)− a × ∇(∇ ⋅ a) + a × ∇(∇ ⋅ a)− a × ∇ 2a + a × ∇ 2a = (∇ ⋅ a)(∇ ×a).

In spherical polar co-ordinates [cf. Section 11.3.1]
x = r sin θ cosφ, y = r sin θ sin φ, z = r cos θ and
er = sin θ cosφ i + sin θ sin φ j + cos θ k, eθ = cos θ cosφ i + cos θ sin φ j − sin θ k, eφ = −sin φ i + cosφ j, (a) ψ = 2yz = r 2 sin 2θ sin φ . (b) Using the results above,
i ⋅ er = sin θ cosφ, i ⋅ eθ = cos θ cosφ, i ⋅ eφ = −sin φ so that
i = sin θ cosφ er + cos θ cosφ eθ − sin φ eφ since er , eθ , and eφ are orthogonal. Similarly
j = sin θ sin φ er + cos θ sin φ eθ + cosφ eφ and
k = cos θ er − sin θ eθ . Hence, collecting terms,
V = x j −y k = r sin θ sin φ(sin θ cosφ − cos θ)er + r sin θ sin φ(cos θ cosφ + sin θ)eθ + r sin θ cos2 φ eφ . (c) Using, in Cartesian co-ordinates,
∇ψ =
∂ψ ∂ψ ∂ψ i+ j+ k = 2z j + 2y k ∂x ∂y ∂z
and the expressions above for y, z, j and k in spherical polar co-ordinates, gives

Since dz = 0 around the circle, the integral reduces to

C
V ⋅ dr = ∫ ⎡⎢(x 2 + y 2 )y dx −(x 2 + y 2 )x dy ⎤⎥. ⎣ ⎦
If we use plane polar co-ordinates in the xy-plane, around the circle we have r = a , so that
x = a cos θ, y = a sin θ, dx = −a sin θdθ, dy = a cos θdθ and 2π 4 2 2 4 ∫ V ⋅ dr = −a ∫ (sin θ + cos θ)dθ = −2πa . C

The work done is
W =∫ F ⋅ dr . Along the given curve,
x = 1 − cost, dx = sin t dt, y = sin t, dy = cost dt, z = t, dz = dt. Thus,
F ⋅ dr = (y + z)dx −(x + z)dy + (x + y)dz = (−t cost + t sin t + sin t − 2cost + 2)dt, and the work done along the curve is 2π
W = ∫ (−t cost + t sin t + sin t − 2cost + 2)dt = 2π . 0
Along the z-axis, x = y = 0 , dx = dy = 0 , and Fz = 0 , so that F ⋅ dr = 0 and so no work 12.9

In the xy-plane, z = 0 and hence dz = 0 , so using dr = dx i + dy j + dz k , gives

To prove that V is a conservative field, it is simplest to show that curl V = 0 . For example, the x component is
∂Vz ∂y
−
∂Vy ∂z
= 2xy sinh(2xz)− 4xy cosh(xz)sinh(xz) = 0 ,
and likewise for the other components. To find the scalar potential, we have
∇φ =
∂φ ∂φ ∂φ i+ j+ k, ∂x ∂y ∂z
with
S12.6
∂φ ∂φ ∂φ = −y 2z sinh(2xz), = −2y cosh 2(xz), = −xy 2 sinh(2xz), ∂x ∂y ∂z and thus by inspection φ = −y 2 cosh 2(xz) +c , where c is a constant. 12.13
Taking the curl of F gives
curl F = (c + 1)i + (a − 4)j + (b − 2)k . For F to be conservative, a = 4, b = 2, c = −1 . Therefore ,
curl F = 0 ,
and
hence
we
must
choose
F = (x + 2y + 4z)i + (2x − 3y − z)j + (4x −y + 2z)k. , The scalar potential φ is then found from F = −∇φ , where
−
∂φ = x + 2y + 4z, ∂x
so that
−φ = 12 x 2 + 2yx + 4zx + f (y,z) , where f (y,z) is a function to be determined. Similarly for the y-component,
−φ = 2xy − 32 y 2 − zy + g(x,z) , and from the z-component,
−φ = 4xz −yz + z 2 + h(x,y). On comparing these three results, we find the general solution
−φ = 12 x 2 + 2yx + 4zx − 32 y 2 − zy + z 2 + d , where d is an arbitrary constant. 12.14
In cylindrical co-ordinates, we have
x = ρ cosφ, y = ρ sin φ, z = z , so that on the curved surface of the cylinder, ρ = 2 and one sees from Figure 11.14 that

In a similar way, on the opposite face with x = 0 , the corresponding integral is zero. If this is repeated for the three other pairs of faces, it is straightforward to show that one face of each pair contributes 12 and the other is zero. So, finally, the total surface integral from all three pairs is 2. 12.16
The relevant diagram is shown below.

We use cylindrical polar co-ordinates with the origin at the centre of the base of the cylinder, the z-axis along the axis of the cylinder, and the y-axis along the axis of rotation. Then the distance r0 from a point (ρ,φ,z) to the axis of rotation is [cf. Figure 11.13(a)]

Expanding the integrand on the left-hand side gives
∇ ×(φc) = ∇φ ×c + φ∇ ×c = ∇φ ×c , since c is a constant vector. The triple scalar product on the left-hand side can therefore be written
⎡ ∇ ×(φc)⎤ ⋅ ds = (∇φ ×c)⋅ ds = c ⋅(ds× ∇φ) . ⎢⎣ ⎥⎦ Substituting this into the expression from Stokes’ theorem gives

Evaluating the limits and using (2.36a), then gives

(a) This does not satisfy the Dirichlet conditions because the integral (13.13) does not converge. (b) This does not satisfy the Dirichlet conditions because arcsin x is multivalued.

(d) This does not satisfy the Dirichlet conditions because x 2e −1/x has an infinite discontinuity at x = 0 . To see this, note that

For real f (x) we have, from (13.49a) and (13.51a), g(k) = g *(−k) , while for antismmetric
f (x) we have g(−k) = −g(k) . Hence for real, antisymmetric f (x) , we have g(k) = −g *(k) , so that g(k) must be pure imaginary. (a) Writing the trigonometric functions in terms of exponentials, gives

k = λ −1 = nπ , ,
n = ±1, ± 2, …
Hence λ −1 = n 2π 2 , so that the eigenvalues are
λ = λn = 1 + n 2π 2 and the corresponding eigenfunctions are therefore
yn (x) = An sin(nπx). 15.10
This is an Euler equation. It is transformed into a linear equation with constant coefficients by the substitution x = e t , as shown in Section 14.3. Then the differentials in (1) become

where the primed notation now refers to differentiating with respect to t. Substituting these expressions into (1) gives
y ′′ + y ′ + ( 14 + λn )y = 0
(2)
which is the form of (14.24) with a = b = 1 , c = ( 14 + λn ) . Now since b 2 − 4ac < 0 , the general solution of (2) is, from (14.28c)
y(t) = e αt (A sin βt + B cos βt), where α = −b 2a = −1 2 , β = 4ac −b 2 2a = λn
and A and B are arbitrary
constants. Thus,
y(t) = e −t/2(A sin λn t + B cos λn t). But the boundary conditions are
y(x = 1) = y(x = e) = 0 , i.e. y(t = 0) = y(t = 1) = 0 , λn = nπ , or λn2 = n 2π 2 . Converting back to the
and imposing these gives B = 0 and x variable we have the eigenfunctions
yn (x) = Ax −1/2 sin(nπ ln x) . Finally to normalise yn (x) we form the integral e
2 ⌠ sin (nπ ln x) 1 = A2 ⎮ dx , ⌡ x 1
which may be evaluated by changing the variable to z = ln x , giving e
2 ⎡ ln x sin(2nπ ln x) ⎤ ⎥ =A . 1=A ⎢ − ⎢ 2 ⎥ 4nπ 2 ⎣ ⎦1 2
So finally
yn (x) = 2x −1/2 sin(nπ ln x) . *15.11 Substituting (15.35) for Ql (x) into the left and right-hand sides of (1) and comparing the coefficients of powers of x one sees that the recurrence relation is satisfied. Equation (1) is identical with the recurrence relation (15.39a) for Legendre polynomials. Hence, since from Example 15.8,

Suppose a second series ∞

Using the expression for G, this becomes

Equating the coefficients of h l on each side gives
(l + 1)Pl+1 − 2lxPl + (l −1)Pl−1 + Pl−1 − xPl = 0 , and hence
(2l + 1)xPl = (l + 1)Pl+1 + lPl−1 as required. *15.14 From (15.41a) the contributions of the three charges to V(r) are, in an obvious notation,

where θ is the angle between r and p. Then, since cos(π − θ) = −cos θ and
Pl (−cos θ) = (−1)l Pl (cos θ) , adding the three terms gives

*15.15 Since Pk (−x) = (−1)k Pk (x) , we have
P2n+1(0) = 0 and P2n′ (0) = 0. Using this, the recurrence relation (15.39a) gives
2nP2n (0) = −(2n −1)P2n−2(0)

so that
P2n (0) = −

Pl (x) = ∑ On comparing this with

(−1)(2l − 2k + 2)(2l − 2k + 1) , k (l − 2k + 2)(l − 2k + 1)(l −k + 1) −1
and since 2k = l −n , this gives
an+2 an

(−1)(l −n)(l + n + 1) , (n + 2)(n + 1)
which is (15.26) and defines Pl (x) for even l (with a 2n+1 = 0 ) up to a normalisation factor. At x = 0 , the only term to survive in (15.50a) is the one with 2k = l , so that
Pl (0) =
(−1)l/2l ! , 2l (l 2)!(l 2)!

Setting l = 2n , gives

which is the result obtained in Problem 15.12, and confirms the normalisation. *15.17 From (15.33) and Rodriques’ formula, one obtains 1

Substituting z = kx in the equation, we obtain, after a little algebra the equation
z2
d2y(z) dy(z) +z + (z 2 −1)y(z) = 0 , 2 dz dz
which is Bessel’s equation for order ν = 1 . Therefore the only solution that satisfies y(z = kx) = 0 at x = 0 is y = AJ 1(kz) . The boundary condition y = 0 at x = 1 , then gives J 1(k) = 0 , which from the table at the end of Section 15.4.1 is satisfied by
k = 3.8317, 7.0156, 10.1735, 13.3237 plus higher values. *15.19 These relations follow directly from the recurrence relations (15.71). In particular, at a maximum of J n (x) , the derivative J n′ (x) = 0 , so that (15.71d) gives
J n−1(x) = J n+1(x), while if J n (x) = 0 , (15.71c) gives
S15.13
J n−1(x) = −J n+1(x). 15.20
For ν = 2 and x = 2 , the series (15.65) becomes

J 2(2) = ∑

J 2(2) = 0.35283 to 5 decimal places. Adding one extra term with n = 5 , and calculating with sufficient accuracy, would reduce the error to 3.4 ×10−8 . 15.21

SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS 16 16.1
We use the method of separation of variables. Thus, writing
u(x,y,z) = X(x)Y (y)Z(z) and dividing by u gives
X ′′ Y ′′ Z ′′ + + + k2 = 0 X Y Z which leads to the three ODEs
X ′′ + kx2X = 0, Y ′′ + ky2Y = 0, Z ′′ + kz2Z = 0, where kx , ky , kz are three arbitrary constants subject to the constraint
k 2 = kx2 + ky2 + kz2 .

The solution for X(x) is

x
but the boundary condition implies X(0) = X(L) = 0 , so that
Bk = 0 for all k, and kx L = nx π, x
where nx is a positive integer. The solution for X(x) s may thus be written

Using the method of separation of variables (16.8), we write
u(x,y) = X(x)Y (y) , so that the Laplace equation becomes the two ODEs
1 d 2X = −k 2 , X dx 2

where k 2 is any real number. The only non-trivial solution to the first of these equations is
S16.2
X(x) = A cos(kx) + B sin(kx) , where A, B are arbitrary constants. Using the first boundary condition gives A = 0 , and the second implies sin(ka) = 0 for non-trivial solutions, i.e.
k = nπ a ,
n = 1, 2,…
so that
X n (x) = Bn sin(nπx a) . The solution of the equation for Y is
Y (y) = C cosh(ky) + D sinh(ky) = C cosh(nπy a) + D sinh(nπy a) , where C, D are arbitrary constants. The third boundary condition gives C = 0 , and so
Yn (y) = Dn sinh(nπy a) , and hence
un (x,y) = X n (x)Yn (y) = BnDn sin(nπx a)sinh(nπy a),
n = 1, 2, …

Using the method of separation of variables, we can write
u(x,y,t) = X(x)Y (y)T(t) and proceeding as in Section 16.2.1, this leads to the three ODEs

u(x,y, 0) = ∑ ∑ anm sin (nπx a ) sin (mπy b ) = sin(xπ a)sin(yπ b) , n=1 m=1

with the boundary conditions given. Using the method of separation of variables with a separation constant −α gives
d2X(x) = −αX(x). dx 2 If α < 0 , we set α = −k 2 and the solution is
X(x) = Ae kx + Be −kx , where A and B are constants. Imposing boundary condition u(0,y) = u(d,y) = 0 implies there is only the trivial solution A = B = 0 , so we take α > 0 and with α = k 2 , the solution is
X(x) = A cos(kx) + B sin(kx). Imposing the same boundary condition at x = 0 implies A = 0 and at x = d that

We need to solve the two-dimensional Laplace equation subject to the boundary condition on the circle. Using the method of separation of variables, we showed in Section 16.3.1 that the general solution in plane polar co-ordinates is given by (16.42), ∞
u(r, θ) = C ln r + D + ∑ (C mr m + Dmr −m )(Am cosmθ + Bm sin mθ), m=1
where C , D , Am , Bm ,C m ,Dm are all constants. However, since u is finite at the origin, it follows that C = 0 and Dm = 0 , so that ∞
u(r, θ) = D + ∑ (C mr m )(Am cosmθ + Bm sin mθ). m=1
The boundary condition gives ∞
u(R, θ) = f (θ) = D + ∑ Rm (Am′ cosmθ + Bm′ sin mθ), m=1
where we have defined Am′ ≡ C mAm and Bm′ ≡ C mBm . To find Am′ , multiply by cos(nθ) divided by pi and integrate over θ from −π to π using the orthogonality conditions (13.6). This gives π ⎧⎪ 2D n = 0 1 an ≡ ∫ f (θ)cos(nθ)dθ = ⎪⎨ n ⎪⎪ R An′ n ≠ 0 π −π ⎪⎩

Since u is a spherically symmetric potential, it only depends on the radial co-ordinate r, and so we only need the term in ∇2 that acts on r. Hence the Laplace equation becomes (cf 16.51)

Integrating twice gives
u(r) =

where a and b are constants. But u(r) → 0 as r → ∞ and so b = 0 and u(r) = a r . 16.9
The problem involves a sphere and has cylindrical symmetry about the z-axis. We therefore use spherical polar co-ordinates but assume the solution is independent of the azimuthal angle φ , so that u = u(r, cos θ) . The general solution of Laplace’s equation (16.65) then reduces to ∞

u(r, θ) → −E 0z +c = −E 0rP1(cos θ) +c , where c is a constant to be determined and P1(cos θ) = cos θ . On comparing to (1), this gives

The general solution of the Laplace equation in cylindrical co-ordinates is given by a linear combination of the separable solutions (16.77a,b). In our case, u must be finite as z → ∞ , which implies that the coefficients Ak = 0 ; and the first boundary condition implies that only terms proportional to sin θ are non-zero. Thus setting m = 1 in (16.77b), we have solutions of the form
S16.14
u(ρ,φ,z) = ckJ 1(kρ)e −kz sin φ,
(1)
for any k where ck ≡ Bk D1 . In addition, the second boundary condition requires that
J 1(k) = 0 , and so the general solution is ∞
u(ρ,φ,z) = ∑ cmJ 1(km ρ)e
−kmz

m=1
where km are the zeroes of J 1 . To find the coefficients, we set z = 0 in (1), multiply by
ρJ 1(kn ρ) and integrate over r. Using the boundary condition (1), this gives 1

The right-hand side may be found using the orthogonality condition (15.74) and gives 2 2 cn ⎡ c J 1′(kn )⎤⎥ = n ⎡⎢J 2(kn )⎤⎥ , ⎢ ⎣ ⎦ ⎣ ⎦ 2 2
where we have used (15.72b) and the fact that J 1(kn ) = 0 . Thus,

The integral may be evaluated using (15.71a). Thus,

So finally, u = 4.878 to three decimal places. *16.17 In both cases, we can use d’Alembert’s solution (16.85), where α and β are given by (16.83). In this way, we obtain: (a)
u(x,t) = 12 exp[−(x − υt)2 ]+ 12 exp[−(x + υt)2 ] ,
i.e. two waves peaked at x = ±υt travelling in opposite directions. x+υt
(b)
1 u(x,t) = q exp(−q 2 )dq . ∫ 2υ x−υt
On changing variables to z = q 2 , one easily shows that
∫ q exp(−q )dq = − 2

exp(−q 2 ) +c ,
so that
u(x,t) = −
2 1 ⎡ −(x+υt )2 −e −(x−υt ) ⎤⎥ . ⎢⎣e ⎦ 4υ
Again we have two waves centred at x = ±υt travelling in opposite directions, but with opposite magnitudes. *16.18 Using the notation of (16.86) we have: (a) A = 2, B = 52 , C = 2 , so that AC ≠ B 2 and we have to solve (16.90), i.e
2 + 5λi + 2λi2 = 0 , which has solutions λi = − 12 or 2. So by (16.88)
S16.16
u = f (x − 12 y) + g(x + 2y), where f, g are arbitrary functions. (b) A = 9, B = −3, C = 1 , so AC = B 2 and by (16.93)
u = f (x + 3y) + xg(x + 3y) . (c) A = 1, B = −2, C = 5 , so that AC ≠ B 2 and we must solve (16.90), i.e.
1 − 4λi + 5λi2 = 0 , which has solutions λi = (4 ± 3i) 5 . So by (16.88),
u = f ⎡⎢x + (4 + 3i)y 5⎤⎥ + g ⎡⎢x + (4 − 3i)y 5⎤⎥ , ⎣ ⎦ ⎣ ⎦ where f, g are arbitrary functions. (d) A = 1, B = 1, C = 0 , so that AC ≠ B 2 and (16.90) becomes
1 + 2λi = 0 , with a single solution λi = − 12 . Hence f (x − 12 y) is a solution. Also, since both terms in the equation contain a partial derivative with respect to x, g(y) is a solution for any function g. The general solution is therefore
u = f (x −y 2) + g(y) . *16.19 In the notation of (16.86), A = B = C = 1 , so that AC = B 2 and the solution is given by (16.93), i.e.,
u(x,y) = f (x −y) + xg(x −y) , where f and g are arbitrary functions. Applying the boundary conditions, we have u(0,y) = f (−y) = y 2 = (−y)2 , so that f (x −y) = (x −y)2 and
u(x,y) = (x −y)2 + xg(x −y). Similarly, at y = 0 ,
u(x, 0) = x 2 + xg(x) = sin x , so that
S16.17
g(x) =
sin x −x x
and hence
⎡ sin(x −y) ⎤ u(x,y) = (x −y)2 + x ⎢ −(x −y)⎥ ⎢ x −y ⎥ ⎣ ⎦ x sin(x −y) = y(y − x) + . x −y *16.20 The temperature distribution is given by the one-dimensional diffusion equation
∂ 2 u(x,t) 1 ∂u(x,t) = , κ ∂t ∂x 2 where x ≥ 0, t > 0 and κ is a constant. The boundary conditions in this case are
u(x, 0) = 0, x > 0
and
u(0,t) = u 0 , t > 0 ,
and in addition we have to impose the physically reasonable condition that u(x,t) → 0 as x → ∞ for all t. Taking the Laplace transform of the diffusion equation with respect to time gives
⎡ ∂ 2 u ⎤ 1 ⎡ ∂u ⎤ L ⎢⎢ 2 ⎥⎥ = L ⎢ ⎥ , ⎢ ⎥ ⎢⎣ ∂x ⎥⎦ κ ⎣ ∂t ⎦ which, using (14.45a) may be written
∂2 1 1 F(x, p) = ⎡⎢−u(x, 0) + pF(x, p)⎤⎥ = ⎡⎢ pF(x, p)⎤⎥ 2 ⎣ ⎦ ⎣ ⎦ κ κ ∂x where F(x, p) ≡ L[u(x,t)] . Using the boundary condition at t = 0 , leads to the solution
F(x, p) = c1(p)e x
p κ
+c2(p)e −x
p κ
,
where c1,2 are functions of p. The condition that u(x,t) → 0 as x → ∞ for all t implies that F(x, p) → 0 also and hence c1(p) = 0 . Imposing the boundary condition at x = 0 gives c2(p) = F(0, p) , where
F(0, p) = L ⎡⎢u(0, p)⎤⎥ = u 0 p , ⎣ ⎦ using Table 14.1. Combining these results gives
F(x, p) =
⎛ p ⎞⎟⎟ ⎜ exp ⎜⎜−x ⎟ , ⎜⎜⎝ p κ ⎟⎟⎠

and hence
⎡ exp(−x p κ) ⎤ ⎥. u(x,t) = u 0L−1 ⎢⎢ ⎥ p ⎢⎣ ⎥⎦ 16.21
Taking the Laplace transform of the PDE with respect to t using (14.45a) gives
∂ 2 F(x, p) = −u(x, 0) + pF(x, p) = pF(x, p) , ∂x 2 where the last step follows from the boundary condition (1). This has the solution
F(x, p) = A cosh(xp1/2 ) + B sinh(xp1/2 ) , where A and B are constants. Next we find F(0, p) from the definition of the Laplace transform, which gives ∞
F(0, p) = ∫ u(0,t)e −pt dt = 0
u0 p

and likewise ∞
∂F(x, p) = ∂x x=a ∫0

e −pt dt = 0 , x=a
where we have used the boundary conditions (2) and (3). These two relations may be used to find the constants A and B from the general solution. Thus, A = u 0 p and
B =−
u 0 sinh(ap1/2 ) . p cosh(ap1/2 )
Substituting these into the general solution gives
F(x, p) =
⎤ u 0 ⎡⎢ sinh(ap1/2 ) 1/2 1/2 ⎥ cosh(xp )− sinh(xp ) ⎥ , p ⎢⎢⎣ cosh(ap1/2 ) ⎥⎦
which using (2.65b) may be written
F(x, p) =
u 0 cosh[(x −a)p1/2 ] . p cosh(ap1/2 )
So, finally
⎡ cosh{(x −a)p1/2 } ⎤ ⎥ , u(x,t) = u 0 L−1 ⎢⎢ 1/2 ⎥ p cosh(ap ) ⎢⎣ ⎥⎦ as required. *16.22 Taking the Laplace transform of the PDE
S16.19
∂2u ∂2u = 2 ∂x 2 ∂t with respect to t using (14.45b) gives
∂ 2 F(x, p) ∂u , = p 2F(x, p)− pu(x, 0)− 2 ∂t t=0 ∂x which using (1) becomes
∂ 2 F(x, p) = p 2F(x, p) , 2 ∂x with solution
F(x, p) = Ae px + Be −px , where A and B are constants. Next we find F(0, p) from the definition of the Laplace transform, which gives ∞
F(0, p) = ∫ u(0,t)e −pt dt = 0 , 0
where we have used (2), and likewise ∞
∂F(x, p) = ∂x x=a ∫0

where again we have used the boundary conditions (2). These two relations may be used to find the constants A and B from the general solution. Thus,
A+B = 0
Ape pa − Bpe −pa = f p
and
and solving gives
A = −B =
f . 2p cosh(pa) 2
Substituting these into the general solution gives
⎡ sinh(px) ⎤ ⎥ , F(x, p) = f ⎢⎢ 2 ⎥ p cosh(pa) ⎣ ⎦ and finally,
⎡ sinh(px) ⎤ ⎥ , u(x,t) = f L−1 ⎢⎢ 2 ⎥ p cosh(pa) ⎣ ⎦ as required.
