What is meant by the linearity of a wave equation? Why is linearity necessary if a wave motion is to be analysed as the superposition of basic motions? Show that the wave equation (in which m is a real constant) is linear, and that it has complex exponential travelling wave solutions of the form ψ(x, t) = ψ0 exp i(kx - ωt + φ). Explain the significance of the parameters k, ω and φ.
