A wave is propagating along x-axis. The displacement of particles of the medium in z-direction at t=0 is given by : z= exp[-(x+2)^(2)] where 'x' is in meter. At t=1s, the same wave disturbance is given by z=exp[-(x-2)^(2)] . Then the wave propagation velocity is :-

When a wave transverses in a medium, the displacement of a particle located at distance x at time t is given by y=a sin (bt-cx) where a, b and c are constants of the wave. The dimension of b//c are same as that of:
