The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the units of \( y \) and \( \gamma \) from the given equation: \[ y = x^2 \cos^2\left(2\pi \frac{\beta \gamma}{\alpha}\right) \] ### Step 1: Analyze the units of \( x \) The problem states that the unit of \( x \) is meters (m). ### Step 2: Determine the units of \( y \) Since \( y \) is equal to \( x^2 \cos^2\left(2\pi \frac{\beta \gamma}{\alpha}\right) \), we can analyze the units: - The term \( \cos^2\left(2\pi \frac{\beta \gamma}{\alpha}\right) \) is dimensionless because cosine is a trigonometric function, which means it does not have any units. - Therefore, the units of \( y \) will be the same as the units of \( x^2 \). Calculating the units of \( x^2 \): \[ \text{Units of } y = \text{Units of } x^2 = (\text{m})^2 = \text{m}^2 \] ### Step 3: Analyze the term inside the cosine function Next, we need to analyze the term \( 2\pi \frac{\beta \gamma}{\alpha} \). For this term to be dimensionless, the units of \( \beta \gamma \) must be the same as the units of \( \alpha \). ### Step 4: Determine the units of \( \alpha \) The problem states that the unit of \( \alpha \) is \( s^{-1} \) (per second). ### Step 5: Determine the units of \( \beta \) The unit of \( \beta \) is given as \( (ms^{-1})^{-1} \), which simplifies to: \[ \text{Units of } \beta = \frac{1}{\text{m/s}} = \frac{s}{\text{m}} \] ### Step 6: Set up the equation for \( \gamma \) Using the dimensional analysis, we have: \[ \text{Units of } \beta \cdot \text{Units of } \gamma = \text{Units of } \alpha \] Substituting the known units: \[ \left(\frac{s}{\text{m}}\right) \cdot \text{Units of } \gamma = s^{-1} \] ### Step 7: Solve for the units of \( \gamma \) Rearranging the equation gives us: \[ \text{Units of } \gamma = s^{-1} \cdot \frac{\text{m}}{s} = \frac{\text{m}}{s^2} \] ### Conclusion Thus, we have determined the units of \( y \) and \( \gamma \): - The units of \( y \) are \( \text{m}^2 \). - The units of \( \gamma \) are \( \frac{\text{m}}{s^2} \). ### Final Result - Units of \( y = \text{m}^2 \) - Units of \( \gamma = \frac{\text{m}}{s^2} \)
