Question

Provide three statements that demonstrate the importance of units when describing motion.



What does that mean? Could you please explain or put it in simpler terms? Possibly an example?


Thank you!

Answer 1

Welcome to openstudy !!!!

Answer 2

Anyway do u know an equation of motion is as
S=vt

Answer 3

Here
s=distance travelled

Answer 4

v=velocity

Answer 5

t=time

Answer 6

Now u know the unit of s=metre

Answer 7

Unit of velocity=meter/sec

Answer 8

Unit of time=sec

Answer 9

So unit of vt=meter/sec*sec=meter
Right?

Answer 10

So we can say
The unit of s= unit of vt

Answer 11

So both the left hand side n right hand side of an equation has the same unit.
Right?!

Answer 12

Now u can check the unit of another equation of motion

Answer 13

For example try it
v=u+at
