A book with many printing errors contains four different forumlae for the displacement y of a particle undergoing a certain periodic motion : (i) y = a sin (2pi t)/(T) (ii) y = a sin upsilon t (iii) y = (a)/(T) sin (t)/(a) (iv) y= (a)/(sqrt2)[sin(2pi t)/(T) + cos (2pi t)/(T)] Here, a is maximum displacement of particle, upsilon is speed of particle, T is time period of motion. Rule out the wrong forumlae on dimensinal grounds.
