Equation of Waves

Wave is an oscillation or disturbance traveling in a medium. It performs the transportation of energy but does not carry any matter. This motion of waves will transport fuel in a medium without permanent transfer of mass (particle).

uppose we were looking at the image of a tiled floor made up alternately of black and white squares aligned with their edges parallel to the x- and y-directions. If the floor were infinite in extent, the mathematical distribution of reflected light could be regarded in terms of a two-dimensional Fourier series. With each tile having a length l, the spatial period along either axis would be 2l, and the associated fundamental angular spatial frequencies would equal pi/l. These and their harmonics would certainly be needed to construct a functiondescribing the scene. Calculate the Fourier transform (FT) of the 2-dimensional square function for this tiled floor.

Plane waves in a box with periodic boundary conditions Consider plane waves (r) = a exp(ik. r) in a d-dimensional cubic region of linear size L in each direction and "volume" V = Lª. There are p possible_wave polarizations. Assume that the waves satisfy "periodic boundary conditions": () = (r+ Lêj), j = 1, ···, d, where ê; is the unit vector along the j-th direction. (i) The boundary conditions restrict the possible values of the wavevector K. Show that those possible values can be written in the form k = (8k) Σj-1¹jêj, where nj, j = 1,…‚d are integers, and calculate the quantity Sk.
