MCQ
Two pulses travel in mutually opposite directions in a string with a speed of $2.5 cm/s$ as shown in the figure. Initially the pulses are $10cm$ apart. What will be the state of the string after two seconds
  • A

  • B


  • D

Answer

Correct option: C.

c
(c) After two seconds each wave travel a distance of $2.5 × 2 = 5 cm$

i.e. the two pulses will meet in mutually opposite phase and hence the amplitude of resultant will be zero.
