For the wave y=0.01sin⁡(kx−ωt)y=0.01\sin(kx-\omega t) with xx in metres and tt in seconds, which one of the following pairs gives permissible SI units for kk and ω\omega respectively so that the argument of the sine function is dimensionless? (a) m−1,  s\text{m}^{-1},\; \text{s} (b) m,  s−1\text{m},\; \text{s}^{-1} (c) m−1,  s−1\text{m}^{-1},\; \text{s}^{-1} (d) m,  s\text{m},\; \text{s}
