1.the equation of wavw is given by y=asinw(x/v-k),where w is angular velocityand v is linear velocity.the dimension of k is?
2.a force f is applied on a squareplate of side l.if the percentage error in the determination of l is 2%and that in f is 4%.what is the permissible error in the pressure

k is defined as wave number.
as it is inverse of wavelength.
.i.e
k = 2.pi/lamda
unit = > m^-1
therfore dimension for k is:
L^-1 M^0 T^0.

a sin w [x/v -k]
M0L0T-1(L1/M0L1T-2)
K=M0L0T-1/M0L0T-2
K=T
Here you need to understand that x is a common representative of distance, without putting the value of x you cannot find the answer
