Question
3. Consider the initial valve problem for U = U(t, x)
for XER given by
Ut + UU x = 0,
U (0,x) =
1+ x²
Write down a formula for the characteristic line
that goes through the point y on the x-axis.
sketch some of the characteristic lines in the (t,x)-
plane calculate the critical time, t*, at which
the solution, u, develops a vertical tangent line. Use
the method of characteristics to sketch the
Solution as a function of X just before and just
after the critical time (Just after the critical time
interpret the solution as a multivalved function)
