If I have (70 m/s^2)/0,50m do I get the units in m/s^-2 ?

sam (.sam.):

No, you will get \[s ^{-2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can that be right when it's an acceleration?

sam (.sam.):

\[a=\frac{v-u}{t}\] a units is \[ms ^{-2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I use a = v^2/(2*s) --> (70 m/s^2)/(2*0,50m)

sam (.sam.):

the 2 in the denominator don't multiply by the distance, which is 0.50m

sam (.sam.):

\[a=\frac{70ms ^{-1}}{2s}\]will do note that the "m" and "s" here is units

Thank you :)

welcome
