The displacement of a wave disturbance propagating in the positive x-direction is given by
`y =(1)/(1 + x^(2))`at `t = 0` and `y =(1)/(1 +(x - 1)^(2))` at `t =2s`
where, `x` and `y` are in meter. The shape of the wave disturbance does not change during the propagation. what is the velocity of the wave?
