Please write neatly and explain everything clearly

Consider the temperature distribution u(x, t) at time t at each point x of a bar of unit length sub-
merged in ice at 0°C, with radiating heat at both ends.
a. We assume that the thermal diffusivity and the heat convection coefficient are all equal to 1
and the initial temperature at each point x is given by the function f (x). Write down the initial
boundary value problem that describes the temperature distribution u(x, t) in the bar.
b. Determine the temperature in the bar at each point x and at time t, by solving the initial problem
obtained in part a).
