A to Z Formula

What is Dimensional Formula of Weight?

In physics weight is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. It is the force with which the earth attracts the body towards its centre.

Mathematically,
Weight = Mass x Acceleration.

Dimensional Formula of Mass = M1L0T0
Dimensional Formula of Acceleration = M0L1T-2

Putting these values in above equation we get,

Dimensional Formula of Weight = M1L1T-2
SI Unit of Weight is newton (N) or Kg.m.s-2
