The equation of stationary wave is `y = A sin kt cos omega` ,where y and x in second choose the correct option

A

the dimensions of A and k are same

B

the dimensions of `A,k and omega `are same

C

the dimensions of `k and omega` are same

D

the dimensions of `(kx) and (omega)` are same

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

`kx and omega t` have dimensions of angle (i.e. `[M^(0)L^(0)T^(0)]`) Hence kt and omega t both are dimensionless
