Given the wave equation on an infinite string. Use the D′Alembert formula to calculate the solution y(x, t) y that satisfies the following initial conditions (see image):   In each case draw the motion of the string according to your solution for t = 0, 1/2, 1, 3/2 [s] (Draw the transverse displacement profiles of the chord. For simplicity, you can assume c = 1).
