A wave travelling along the $x- $ axis is described by the equation $y(x, t) = 0.005\,\,cos(\alpha x\,-\,\beta t).$  If the wavelength and the time period of the wave are $0.08 \,\,m$ and $2.0\,\,s,$  respectively, then $\alpha $ and $\beta $ in appropriate units are

  • A

    $\alpha \,\, = \,25.00\,\pi \,\,  ;\,\,\beta \, = \,\pi $

  • B

    $\alpha \,\, = \frac{{0.08}}{\pi }\,\,  ;\,\,\beta \, = \,\frac{{2.0}}{\pi }$

  • C

    $\alpha \,\, = \frac{{0.04}}{\pi }\,\,  ;\,\,\beta \, = \,\frac{{1.0}}{\pi }$

  • D

    $\alpha \,\, = 12.50\pi \,\,  ;\,\,\beta \, = \,\frac{\pi }{{2.0}}$
