Question
Chapter 14, Problem 97A
To determine
To Sketch: the result of four cases of wave given below.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
A pulse wave is a non-sinusoidal waveform. It has one major crest which usually arises due to sudden disturbance.
The resulting wave for each case when two wave pulses overlap is shown below:
  
When the crest meets a trough, the amplitude of resultant wave is small while when crest meets crest, the amplitude of resultant wave is large.
