A wave travelling along the x-axis is described by the equation y(x,t)=0.005   cos(αx−βt)y\left( {x,t} \right) = 0.005\,\,\,cos\left( {\alpha x - \beta t} \right). If the wavelength and the time period of the wave are 0.08    m   and  2.0  s0.08{\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} \,\,m\,\,\,and\,\,2.0{\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} s, respectively, than α  and β\alpha \,\,and\,\beta in appropriate unit are
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
a=25.00π,βπa = 25.00\pi ,\mathrm{ }\beta \mathrm{ }\pi
Option A (a=25.00π,βπa = 25.00\pi ,\mathrm{ }\beta \mathrm{ }\pi) is correct because it correctly calculates the values of α\alpha and β\beta using the given wavelength and time period.
