k=2lπ​+l2πn​,k=2l3π​+l2πn​;l=0
Solution steps
cos(kl)=0
General solutions for cos(kl)=0
cos(x) periodicity table with 2πn cycle:
x06π​4π​3π​2π​32π​43π​65π​​cos(x)123​​22​​21​0−21​−22​​−23​​​xπ67π​45π​34π​23π​35π​47π​611π​​cos(x)−1−23​​−22​​−21​021​22​​23​​​​
kl=2π​+2πn,kl=23π​+2πn
kl=2π​+2πn,kl=23π​+2πn
Solve kl=2π​+2πn:k=2lπ​+l2πn​;l=0
kl=2π​+2πn
Divide both sides by l;l=0
kl=2π​+2πn
Divide both sides by l;l=0lkl​=l2π​​+l2πn​;l=0
Simplify
lkl​=l2π​​+l2πn​
Simplify lkl​:k
lkl​
Cancel the common factor: l=k
Simplify l2π​​+l2πn​:2lπ​+l2πn​
l2π​​+l2πn​
Apply the fraction rule: acb​​=c⋅ab​=2lπ​+l2πn​
k=2lπ​+l2πn​;l=0
k=2lπ​+l2πn​;l=0
k=2lπ​+l2πn​;l=0
Solve kl=23π​+2πn:k=2l3π​+l2πn​;l=0
kl=23π​+2πn
Divide both sides by l;l=0
kl=23π​+2πn
Divide both sides by l;l=0lkl​=l23π​​+l2πn​;l=0
Simplify
lkl​=l23π​​+l2πn​
Simplify lkl​:k
lkl​
Cancel the common factor: l=k
Simplify l23π​​+l2πn​:2l3π​+l2πn​
l23π​​+l2πn​
Apply the fraction rule: acb​​=c⋅ab​=2l3π​+l2πn​
k=2l3π​+l2πn​;l=0
k=2l3π​+l2πn​;l=0
k=2l3π​+l2πn​;l=0
k=2lπ​+l2πn​,k=2l3π​+l2πn​;l=0
