Consider the partial differential equation for heat in a one-dimensional rod with temperature u(x,t) on 0 < x < 4: du/dt = alpha*d^2u/dx^2 Assume the initial condition: u(x,0) = f(x) and the boundary conditions: u(0,t) = 0 and u(4,t) = 0 By plugging u(x,t) = ae^(-kt)sin(pix/L) into the equation, determine the values of alpha, k, and L that ensure that u(x,t) solves this problem.
