Question

At t = 0, a transverse wave pulse in wire is described by the function;
y=6x2+3
Where x and y are in meters. Write the function y(x,t) that describes this wave if it travelling in the positive x-direction with a speed of 4.50 m/s.

Solution

The correct option is D y=6[(x4.5t)2+3]
the equation of transverse wave pulse at t=o is y=6/(x2+3)
since the wave is travelling in positive x direction with speed 4.5 m/s so the position of pulse at t time is x4.5×t
so the equation of pulse is y=6(x4.5t)2+3
so the answer is D.
