Two wave function in a medium along x di...

Two wave function in a medium along x direction are given by
`y_(1)=1/(2+(2x-3t)^(2))m`, `y_(2)=-1/(2+(2x+3t-6)^(2))m`
Where x is in meters and t is in seconds

A

There is no position at which resultant displacement will be zero at all times

B

There is no time at which resultant displacement will be zero everywhere.

C

Both waves travel in same directions.

D

Both waves travel in oppoisite directions.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Resultant displacement
`y=y_(1)+y_(2)`
for y to be zero
y=0
`(2x-3t)^(2)=(2x+3t-6)^(2)`
on solving `(x-3/2)(t-1) =0`
Therefore,
at `x=3/2`, resultant displacement is zero all values of t.
