Consider wave propagation in an aeolotropic medium such as a single crystal where Hooke’s law in its most general form must be employed. (i) Show that in this case there are three distinct velocities of propagation of a plane wave. Also show that the vibration directions accompanying the three velocities are mutually perpendicular. (ii) Explain the consequences of any two of these three velocities being equa
