I am supposed to take the Laplace transform of the wave equation that yields a non-homogeneous ordinary differential equation in terms of $mathcalLf(x)$ and $mathcalLu(x,t)$ and its $x$-derivatives.
Can someone please explain the relationship between the two function, and how it's $x$-derivatives changes will be reflected in the function. This question was posed as a challenge question, and I am seeking some guidance.

I'm not sure what your question is. Applying the Laplace transform $$mathcalLg(boldsymbolx, t) = int_0^infty g(boldsymbolx, t) e^-st dt = tildeg(boldsymbolx, s)$$ to your problem yields $$s^2 tildeu - tildeu_xx = tildef$$ You'll need to convert your boundary conditions as well and then solve the above ODE.

The boundary conditions are just simply between 0 and 1 as opposed to infinity? I don't understand how your response is yielding a equation in terms of Lf(x) and Lu(x,t). I'm quite lost how to transform on these nonspecific functions.

Mattos, where did you get g(x,t)?

Can you explain where you difficulty is? Do you know what the Laplace transform is, and have you tried applying it?
