What Does a Harmonic Wave Equation Represent in Physics?
Yes, I mean h(x, t) = A sin(wt-kx+δ). 1) What is the distance between two maxima/minima in an interference pattern of two waves u1 and u2 described by u1(x) = cos(k1 x); u2(x) = cos(k2 x) So what is the equation for the combined wave? I don't know. It is just shown for me this question. So I...- matywlee

What Does a Harmonic Wave Equation Represent in Physics?
Homework Statement Please kindly help me. Actually I don't quite understand what the meaning of harmonic wave is and the mathematics that expresses it. h(x,y;t) = h sin(wt-kx+δ) h represents the position of the particle in a particular time? Or the wave motion? What is the physical...- matywlee
