A pulse is propagating on a long stretched string along its length taken as positive x-axis. Shape of the string at t = 0 is given by y = sqrt(a^2 - x^2) when |x| lt= a = 0 when |x| gt= a . What is the general equation of pulse after some time 't' , if it is travelling along positive x-direction with speed V?
