# In the formula : y = a sin ( at - b), where y - position, t - time and A, a, b are constants. What will be the dimensional formula of $\frac{b}{a}$?

T

##### SOLUTION
Dimensions of at=Dimension of b
$\left[ a \right] \left[ t \right] =\left[ b \right] \\ \dfrac { b }{ a } =t\\ =T$

You're just one step away
