In one dimension, these objects are sums of arbitrary functions of x minus v t and x plus v t as that is the general solution of their namesake equation, which gives a proportionality between the second space derivative and second time derivative. One parameter governing these phenomena is given by the angular frequency over their namesake number and is known as the group velocity. These physical objects can be longitudinal or transverse and exhibit refraction, diffraction, interference, and dispersion. FTP, name these physical phenomena; propagating disturbances in a medium often seen on the surface of water.
