What is the Dimensional Formula of Acceleration?
Acceleration is defined as change in velocity per unit time. So its formula is
Acceleration = Change in Velocity/Time Taken
Now
Velocity = Displacement/Time
Velocity = L/T
So
Acceleration = L/T2
So Dimensional Formula of Acceleration= M0L1T-2
SI unit of Acceleration is ms-2
The Dimensional Formula of Acceleration due to gravity (g) is also same as acceleration.
