Mathematical Foundation for the (traveling) wave formula
 
    
    Let's use to denote the deviation from the equilibrium.
                           

Let's move this graph by +3 and see what we


need to incorporate proper changes in coordinates.

                                 

The original function still retains its functional shape


in the new coordinate system. That is,
Since   x' = x -3.  in  the old coordinate system, 
the equation for the now-translated function
becomes  
5( x 3)2
 ( x)  e
Conclusion:  
In order to move a graph by +a, replace the variable by (x-a) in the original
function. 
    
 Exercise : Find the expression for the function when it has moved -5 units.

What happens if we replace the x with x - 3 t ?   That is,      


   5( x 3t ) 2
 ( x)  e 동영상 파일
What is the physical meaning of "3" in the above expression?
Harmonic Waves
 
Waves that behave according to Sin or Cos functions are called harmonic waves.
 
   

      

      

            
The function that produced this graph is  
    

  Review of the Sin function


k   2
                     
Now, we move this function as
            
Let's take an example. l = 1 m,   v= 0.5 m/s.
