You have learnt that a travelling wave in one dimension isrepresented by a function y = f (x, t) where x and t must appear in the combination x-vt or x + vt, i.e. y = f `(x +- v t)`. Is the converse true? Examine if the following functions for y can possibly represent a travelling wave : `1//(x +vt)`
