    Study Notes

    Dimensions

    • Mass: kg, M
    • Time: s, T
    • Length: m, L
    • Area: m2, L2
    • Volume: m3, L3
    • Speed: m/s, LT-1
    • Acceleration: m/s2, LT-2
    • Power: kg⋅m2/s3, ML2T-3
    • Work/Energy: kg⋅m2/s2, ML2T-2
    • Voltage: W⋅d = F⋅x⋅d = ML2T-2 / A⋅T
    • Resistance: MLT-2A-1
    • Reactance: ML2T-3A-2
    • Impedance:MLT-1A-2
    • Boltzmann constant: no units

    Examples

    • If the dimension of power is given by: MLaTb

    Acceleration

    • Acceleration = Δ in vel / time

    Torque

    • Torque = F ⋅ x⋅d = (m ⋅ a) ⋅ x = (kg ⋅ m/s2) ⋅ m = kg⋅m2/s2 = ML2T-2
