areh see all will move towards +ve direction only. its like we are displacing graph to the right
what do u understand by f(t-x/v)????(in case of waves)
write anything ,what u can extract from this.

this is the eqn of wave.... wrt to the particle at x=0 as time passes..
i mean this eqn gives the position or displacement of the point x=0 as time passes.
and also,,, the wave is travelling in the positive x-direction.
the point will not move anywhere!
it is the wave that travels..
all particles jus travel up and down ..
there is only y-displacement..
no x-displacement.
+y or -y ???
u guys r not giving the answer at one go???need some revision
the info provided just shows that its a function (possiblly),a function of a wave that has dependence on t and x.we even cannot predict whther this wave is even sinusoidal or not(atleast with the given info)
the satisgying condition for a funtion to be a wave (atleast in our syllabus is
(d2y/dx) / (d2y/dt) = k(a constant)
oh yeah,then if it is a sin() then i will say its a sine function having dependence on t and x,we still don t know whther its alinear ,quadratic or which relation
haan ab kuch sahi hai(and within our course)
this is a eqn of a wave that which propagates along the x direction and whose particles vibrate in shm in the y direction
(don't ask in which x direction it propagates as that is assumption based)
dont u think all people above told it will travel in +ve x.....so it must correct.....or u still differ
