Title: Last Year HW:5.4.12
Post by: Aida Razi on November 11, 2012, 10:33:08 PM
I am just wondering in this question when P.T. wrote Parseval's equality, it shouldn't contain "integral |sin(nπx/l)|^2"; Right?

Yes, except $\int_0^l |sin(nπx/l)|^2\,dx =l/2$, so you don't need this integral. Ditto for 5.4.13, 5.4.15.



And who is P.T.?
