MCQ
Two pulses having equal and opposite displacements moving in opposite directions overlap at t =t1s. The resultant displacement of the wave at t = t1s is:
  • A
    Twice the displacement of each pulse.
  • B
    Half the displacement of each pulse.
  • C
    Zero.
  • D
    Either (a) or (c).
✓

Answer

  1. Zero.

Explanation:

The displacement due to two pulses will exactly cancel out each other. Thus, there will be no displacement throughout.
