A wave pulse is propagating with speed $c$ towards positive $x$ -axis. The shape of pulse at $t=0$, is $y=a e^{-x / b}$ where $a$ and $b$ are constant. The equation of wave is: (a) $a e^{-\left(\frac{x-c t}{b}\right)}$ (b) $a e^{\frac{c t+x}{b}}$ (c) $a e^{x-c t}$ (d) none of these
A wave pulse in the shape of $y=f(x)$ at $t=0$ is moving along positive $x$ -axis with a constant speed $c$. The equation of wave is: (a) $y=f(x+c t)$ (b) $y=f(x-c t)$ (c) $y=f(c x+t)$ (d) none of these
$y=a \cos (k x-\omega t)$ superposes on another wave giving a stationary wave having node at $x=0 .$ What is the equation of the other wave? (a) $a \cos (k x+\omega t)$ (b) $a \cos (k x-\omega t)$ (c) $-a \cos (k x+\omega t)$ (d) $-a \sin (k x+\omega t)$
