Q. The figure shows at time $t = 0$ second, a rectangular and triangular pulse on a uniform wire are approaching each other. The pulse speed is $0.5\, cm/s$. The resultant pulse at $t = 2$ second isPhysics Question Image

Solution:

At $t=2$ second, the position of both pulses are separately given by figure-(a) and figure-(b); the superposition of both pulses is given by figure-(c).
