07 General Solution Of The One-Dimensional Wave Equation, Charles G. Torre
Foundations of Wave Phenomena
We will now find the “general solution” to the one-dimensional wave equation (5.11). What this means is that we will find a formula involving some “data” — some arbitrary functions — which provides every possible solution to the wave equation.
