a) By direct substitution determine which of the following
functions satisfy the wave equation.
1. g(x, t) = Acos(kx − t) where A, k,
are positive
constants.
2. h(x, t) = Ae
where A, k, are positive
constants.
3. p(x, t) = Asinh(kx − t) where A, k,
are positive
constants.
4. q(x, t) = Ae
where A, a, are positive
constants.
5. An arbitrary function: f(x, t) = f(kx−t) where k and
are positive
constants. (Hint: Be careful
with your derivative rules.)
b) What similarities among functions that satisfy the wave equation
do you observe? Do you notice any differences between functions
that satisfy the wave equation and those that do not?
c) Verify by direct substitution that an arbitrary linear
combination of two functions that satisfy the
wave equation will also satisfy the wave equation. That is, if f(x,
t) and g(x, t) both satisfy the wave
equation you are to show that the function F(x, t) = f(x,
t)+
also satisfies the wave equation
provided and are
constants.
