Chapter 16, Problem 1P

To determine

To sketch: the wave function for given values of $t$ .

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

The wave function at $t=0$ is given. The speeds of pulses are used to determine the position for given times.

Draw wave function for $t=1.0\text{s}$ .

  

Draw wave function for $t=2.0\text{s}$ .

  

Draw wave function for $t=3.0\text{s}$ .

  

Conclusion:

Thus, the wave function for given values of $t$ is shown above.
