Question

To verify that this expression for (vf)α has the correct units of velocity, you need to perform some unit analysis. begin by finding the equivalent of a volt in terms of basic si units. what is a volt in terms of meters (m), seconds (s), kilograms (kg), and coulombs (c)?

Answer 1

Answer

1 V = 1 kg m2 s−² C

1 V = 1 kg m2 s−³ A−1

(one kilogram meter squared per second cubed per ampere)

Explanation

The work required to move an electric charge of one coulomb through an electrical potential difference of one volt,

Volts = Joules / Coulombs

    Joules = Newton x metre

     Volts = Nm / coulombs

    Newton = kg x metre / second ²

    Volts = kg x metre / second ² coulombs

Volt in terms of meters (m), seconds (s), kilograms (kg), and coulombs (c)

For further:

Coulomb = Amp * second

Volts = kg x metre / second ³ Amp
