The figure shows a graph of two pulses traveling toward each other at t=0 s. Each pulse has a constant speed of 1 cm/s. When t = 5 s, what is the height of the resultant pulse at x = 3 cm? +2 cm +1 cm -1 cm -2 cm -3 cm -4 cm 0 cm 3 cm -4 cm 1 cm O-3 cm 1 2 1 cm/s 3 1 cm/s 5 Distance x, cm 4 9 8 9 The figure shows a graph of two pulses traveling toward each other at t=0 s.
