The displacement due to a wave moving in the positive $x$-direction is given by $y = \frac{1}{(1 + x^2)}$ at time $t = 0$ and by $y = \frac{1}{[1 + (x - 1)^2]}$ at $t = 2$ seconds,where $x$ and $y$ are in metres. The velocity of the wave in $m/s$ is

  • A
    $0.5$
  • B
    $1$
  • C
    $2$
  • D
    $4$
