The disturbance $y(x, t)$ of a wave propagating 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 $t = 2 \ s$,where $x$ and $y$ are in meters. The shape of the wave disturbance does not change during the propagation. The velocity of the wave in $m/s$ is:

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