A travelling wave has an equation of the form A(x,t)=f(x+vt). The relation connecting positional derivative with time derivative of the function is:
The second derivative of a single valued function parametrically represented by x=ϕ(t) and y=ψ(t), ( where ϕ(t) and ψ(t) are different functions and ϕ′(t)≠0) is given by
