Answer:

yes

Explanation:

there are other quantities that are dimensionless, but have a unit.

For example, radian is the unit for an angle. But it is dimensionless because it is defined to be the ratio of two lengths.,

a dimensionless quantity will always be independent of the base units — meter, second, kilograms, kelvin, candela, moles, ampere.

Other examples:

1. Mass fraction

2.Mole fraction

both have unit (kg/kg)

If a car changes ita velocity from 32km/hr to 54km/hr in 8.0 seconds, what is its acceleration
Andrews [41]
Firstly, let's convert the velocities in km/hr to m/s
32*1000/3600=8.89m/s
54*1000/3600=15m/s
From the formula, acceleration=V-U/t
15-8.89/8=0.76m/s²
hope this helps.
