Traveling Waves
摘要
Let the solution of the equation be \(u\left( {x,t} \right) = ae^{{i\left( {kx - \omega t} \right)}}\) . Substituting this into the given equation gives \(k - \omega = 0 \Rightarrow c_{0} = \frac{\omega }{k} = 1\) . It can be seen that the phase speed \({c}_{0}\) is constant and hence the solution to the given equation is a non-dispersive wave.
