**Problem Statement:**

5. Find the series solution for the following wave equation:

\[
u_{tt} - u_{xx} = 0, \quad 0 < x < L, \, t \geq t,
\]

Boundary conditions:
\[
u(0, t) = u(L, t) = 0, \quad t > 0,
\]

Initial conditions:
\[
u(x, 0) = \delta \left(x - \frac{L}{2}\right), \quad u_t(x, 0) = 0, \quad 0 < x < L,
\]

where \(\delta(x)\) is the Dirac-delta function with the following property: for any continuous function \(f(x)\) in \(R^1\),

\[
\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x) \delta(x) dx = 1.
\]
