- Division of normal numbers makes sense but what does division of two physical quantity mean.
As we all know that division simply means how many parts of the whole we have (or splitting into equal parts)
1)Example:- if we have 12 apples and there are 3 people so each will get 4 apples right. Easy!
Now my question is how does this definition makes sense in term of physical quantities ?
2)Example:- theta= arc length/radius
So according to first example i say that theta mean number of radiuses in given arc length ?
similarly what can we say about voltage=work/charge ?
