Show hintHide hint
Think about the definition of linear systems.
Question 2.
What is a boundary value problem?
Show hintHide hint
Consider how solutions can vary without conditions.
3Question 3.
What assumption does linear wave theory make about waves?
- They are always linear
- They are often non-linear

Question 5.
Design a small wave tank for an experiment and identify the boundary conditions you would need to specify to conduct your analysis.
Show hintHide hint
Consider how each boundary affects wave generation and behavior.
Question 6.
