The correct Answer is:
To find the dimensions of \( \vec{a} \) given the equation \( \vec{F} = \frac{\vec{a}}{t} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rearranging the equation We start with the equation: \[ \vec{F} = \frac{\vec{a}}{t} \] To find \( \vec{a} \), we can rearrange the equation: \[ \vec{a} = \vec{F} \cdot t \] ### Step 2: Identifying the dimensions of force Next, we need to identify the dimensions of force \( \vec{F} \). The dimension of force is given by: \[ [\vec{F}] = [M][L][T^{-2}] \] This means that the dimensions of force are: \[ [\vec{F}] = M L T^{-2} \] ### Step 3: Identifying the dimensions of time Now, we identify the dimensions of time \( t \): \[ [t] = T \] ### Step 4: Combining the dimensions Now we can substitute the dimensions of \( \vec{F} \) and \( t \) back into our rearranged equation for \( \vec{a} \): \[ [\vec{a}] = [\vec{F}] \cdot [t] = (M L T^{-2}) \cdot (T) \] ### Step 5: Simplifying the dimensions Now we simplify the expression: \[ [\vec{a}] = M L T^{-2} \cdot T = M L T^{-1} \] ### Final Result Thus, the dimensions of \( \vec{a} \) are: \[ [\vec{a}] = M L T^{-1} \]
