Waves in one and two dimensions
5. Reading the series
In the Fourier series , what happens to the curve when you keep only the first term and drop the rest?
6. Counting frequencies in an image
A grayscale image of size pixels contains the wave . What does this wave look like?
7. Second coefficient of the ramp
The Fourier series of the ramp on is . Write the magnitude of the coefficient multiplying as a decimal.
