Textbook Question
Chapter 13.6, Problem 4P
Find the characteristic frequencies for sound vibration in a rectangular box (say a room) of sides a, b, c. Hint: Separate the wave equation in three dimensions in rectangular coordinates. This problem is like Problem 3 but for three dimensions instead of two. Discuss degeneracy (see Problem 3).
