A

The pulses will collide wilth each other and vanish after collision

B

The pulses will reflect from each other i.e., the poulse going towards right will finally move towards left and vice versa

C

The pulses wil pass through each other but their shapes will be modified

D

the pulses will pss through each other without any chasnge in their shapes.
