Answer
Given equation is
where a is acceleration, v is velocity and r is the radius.
We need to check the correctness of the given equation.
So,
the dimensions of acceleration 'a' are
dimensions of velocity 'v' are
dimensions of the radius (length) 'r' are
Now, the given equation is
Solving dimentionally
LHS = RHS
Hence, the equation is correct.

Given equation:-
(centripetal acceleration)
LHS:-
Dimensions of 'a' =
RHS:-
Dimensions of 'v' =
∴ Dimensions of 'v' squared:-
Dimensions of 'r' =
∴ Dimensions of v²/r =
= = LHS.
Hence, the dimensions are correct in the given equation and it is correct.
More:-
- Dimensional units of,
- Mass = M
- Length = L
- Time = T
- Temperature = K
- Degrees = θ
- Current = A.
- Centripetal force = .
- Centripetal force helps in attraction whereas centrifugal, it's opposite.
