The amplitude of a wave disturbance propagating in the positive $x$-direction is given by $y = \frac{1}{1+x^2}$ at time $t=0$ and $y = \frac{1}{1+(x-2)^2}$ at $t=1 \text{ s}$,where $x$ and $y$ are in meters. The shape of the wave does not change during the propagation. The velocity of the wave will be $... \text{ m/s}$.
