Chapter 7.2, Problem 50E
Some of the following exercises have nonunique solutions.
50. Traffic Flow In an analysis of traffic, a retirement community estimates the traffic flow on its “town square” at 6 P.M. to be as illustrated in the figure. If x1 illustrates the number of cars moving from intersection A to intersection B, x2 represents the number of cars traveling from intersection B to intersection C, and so on, we can formulate equations based on the principle that the number of vehicles entering the intersection equals the number leaving it. For example, the equation that represents the traffic through A is x4 + 470 = x1 + 340.
- a. Formulate an equation for the traffic at each of the four intersections.
- b. Solve the system of these four equations to find how traffic between the other intersections is related to the traffic from intersection D to intersection A.

Moreover, the last two rowsof A are entirely absent. Your task is to determine and fill in the missing elements. For the last two rows,enforce a zero tangent at the beginning (in p1) and a not-a-knot boundary condition in p2. The matricesA and B are given as follows:Explain how to find the entries of A and B .

First deduce an expression for the one-parameter family of catenaries passing through point P. Next calculate the value of x at which y takes its minimum value. By using the inequality cosh > √2 (you might like to think about how to prove this), show that there are points Q for which it is impossible to find a catenary passing through both P and Q. In particular, show that it is impossible to find a catenary joining the points (0, 1) and (2, 1). (b) A minimal surface of revolution can be realised experimentally by soap films attached to circular wire frames (see this link and this link for examples).
