Wave Equation Solution: v = w/k | y(x,t) = Ae^(i(kx-wt))

[dnoi]

Homework Statement

Show that, as long as v = w/k, the wave equation is solved by

y(x,t) = Ae^(i(kx-wt))

v=velocity
w=angular velocity
k=wave number

You have just to calculate the derivatives of $y(x,t)$ and plug them in the wave equation.
