**True or False:** EM Waves can have velocities higher than $c$. 1. True 2. False 3. I don't know what to believe anymore Note: * Correct answer: A
Fourier tells us that we can write a "pulse" by summing up sinusoidal functions: $f(x) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} a(k)e^{ikx}dk$ If we were to compute $f(x) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} a(k)e^{ik(x-vt)}dk$ where $v$ is a known constant, what would we get? 1. $f(x)$ 2. $f(vt)$ 3. $f(x-vt)$ 4. Something complicated! 5. ??? Note: * Correct Answer: C
