Lecture 20: Fluid Simulation (6)

Im wondering if this system and approach to model liquid physics could also be used for something like sound? Simulate how sound waves traverse a scene?

I'm a little confused on why staggering solves the checkerboard issue. From what I understand from lecture, the checkerboard issue arises from if I interpolate values that are two cells apart. Why would shifting x/y coordinates solve this issue -- if I took measurements two "shifted units" apart, wouldn't it still result in a checkerboard effect?

I'm also a little confused on what exactly is produced or what is meant by the checkerboard. The professor mentions there are essentially "two simulations" being run. What does this mean?
