At t=0, transverse pulse in a wire is described by the function
`y=(6)/(x^(2)+3)`
where x and y are in metres. Write the function `y(x,t)` that describe this plus if it is travelling in the positive x-direction with a speed of `4.50 m//s`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(6)/((x-4.5t)^(2) + 3)`

`y = (6)/(x^(2) + 3) = f(x)`
As `y(x, t) = f(x - vt) = (6)/((x-4.5t)^(2) + 3)`
