Solution

Your document is an assignment for the MAT3700 course, focusing on Fourier Series. Here's a breakdown of the tasks:

Questions from the Assignment:

  1. (15 Marks): Obtain the Fourier series expansion for a periodic function f(t)f(t) with period 2π2\pi, defined as: f(t+2π)=f(t),π<t<π.f(t + 2\pi) = f(t), \quad -\pi < t < \pi.

  2. (25 Marks): Consider a function f(t)f(t) defined over 0<t<40 < t < 4:

    t, & 0 < t < 2, \\ 4 - t, & 2 < t < 4. \end{cases}$$ - 2.1: Find the half-range **cosine** Fourier expansion. - 2.2: Find both **cosine and sine** half-range Fourier expansions.

These cover topics from Fourier Series for periodic functions, even/odd functions, and half-range expansions based on your study material.


Would you like help in solving specific parts of the questions, or would you like a detailed explanation of the Fourier Series and how to approach this assignment?

Follow-up Questions:

  1. What steps are involved in deriving a Fourier series for a periodic function?
  2. How do you find the Fourier coefficients for a function defined over a specific range?
  3. What is the significance of even and odd functions in Fourier expansions?
  4. How do half-range cosine expansions differ from full Fourier series expansions?
  5. How do you identify whether to use sine or cosine in half-range expansions?

Tip:

In half-range expansions, use only sine functions for odd extensions and cosine functions for even extensions.
