You have the same derivates in the normal wave equation.pam said:The normal wave train. The shape of f(x-vt) is unchanged in the wave equation.
Since the Schrodinger equation involves d^2/dx^2 and d/dt, the shape will change.
Yes, it's true.pam said:The normal wave equation has d^2/dt^2.
A wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium, transferring energy from one point to another without the physical transfer of matter.
There are three main types of waves: mechanical waves, electromagnetic waves, and matter waves. Mechanical waves require a medium to travel through, while electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum. Matter waves, also known as quantum waves, describe the wave-like behavior of particles at a quantum level.
Waves are formed when a source of energy, such as wind or vibration, causes a disturbance in a medium. This disturbance causes the particles in the medium to vibrate, creating a wave that travels outward from the source.
Frequency refers to the number of waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time, usually measured in hertz (Hz). Wavelength, on the other hand, is the distance between two consecutive points on a wave that are in phase, or have the same amplitude and direction.
Waves can be measured in several ways, depending on the type of wave. For mechanical waves, the amplitude, frequency, and wavelength can be measured. Electromagnetic waves can be measured by their frequency or wavelength, and matter waves can be measured by their momentum or wavelength.
