Two wave pulses on a string approach one another at the time $t=0,$ as shown in Figure $14-35 .$ Each pulse moves with a speed of $1.0 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$. Make a careful sketch of the resultant wave at the times $t=1.0 \mathrm{s}, 2.0 \mathrm{s}, 2.5 \mathrm{s}, 3.0 \mathrm{s},$ and $4.0 \mathrm{s},$ assuming that the su- perposition principle holds for these waves.
