36. The general solution of the differential equation is

y(x) = c1 J0 (αx) + c2 Y0 (αx).

In order to satisfy the conditions that limx→0+ y(x) and limx→0+ y  (x) are finite we are forced to define c2 = 0.
Thus, y(x) = c1 J0 (αx). The second boundary condition, y(2) = 0, implies c1 = 0 or J0 (2α) = 0. In order to
have a nontrivial solution we require that J0 (2α) = 0. From Table 5.1 in the text, the first three positive zeros
of J0 are found to be
2α1 = 2.4048, 2α2 = 5.5201, 2α3 = 8.6537

and so α1 = 1.2024, α2 = 2.7601, α3 = 4.3269. The eigenfunctions corresponding to the eigenvalues λ1 = α12 ,
λ2 = α22 , λ3 = α32 are J0 (1.2024x), J0 (2.7601x), and J0 (4.3269x).
