Homework Statement
In a desperate attempt to come up with an equation to use during an examination, a student tries the following equations. Use dimensional analysis to determine which of these equations could be correct. Here x, v, and a, are the position, velocity and acceleration.
- v2=ax
- a=v2/x
- x=v2/a
- a=xv2
- x=av2
- v=ax
- v=a/x
- x=av
- a=xv
- v=a/t
- v=at
- v=t/a
- a=v/t
- t=av
- t=v/a
- t=a/v
- a=t/v
Homework Equations
a=d/t^2
v=d/t
The Attempt at a Solution
This dimensional analysis thing is really killing me, I understand that the units have to match, that's about it I got out of my textbook and some youtube videos. How about to I apply that to solve this problem (T/F)
