The one dimensional wave equation describes how waves of speed c propogate along a taught string. It is given by the formula dt? "(x, t) = c²- car2 u (x, t). This is a partial differential equation. In MATHE, we’ve only learned how to solve ordinary differential equations. However, using the multivariable chain rule, we'll show that this problem is indeed tractable a) By introducing variables n = x – ct, a = x + ct, show that the wave equation becomes da b) Show that u = F(a) + G(n) is a solution for any two functions F and G. %3D
