To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the situation involving two frames of reference: a stationary medium and a moving frame. ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have a harmonic wave traveling in a stationary medium. We need to find the equation of this wave in a frame that is moving along the negative x-axis with a constant speed \( v \). ### Step 2: Write the Wave Equation in the Stationary Frame The wave equation in the stationary medium can be expressed as: \[ ...
