units

is it so that the whether we write units of a quantity as

either m/s2 or rad2m/s2 ...bothe are same.

is it so???????

no, it is not correct...its is correct dimensionally,but not acc to units, take example of acceleration(which u gave...:P)
here, if the body is accelerating in linear direction, say- x-axis, then there is no angle....so, it will b absurd to say that the acceleration of body is ....rad n (n not equal to 0)ms2

i hope i m clear...:)

dude,see R U IN XI TH?????

THEN SEE HCV 1 PG-114 EXERCISE Q.NO.1

IF U USE OMEGA2 R AND IF U USE V2/R U GET DIFF. UNITS.UT OTH FORMULA ARE CORRECT.ANS IS GIVEN IN TERMS OF
M/S2 BUT ACC. TO FORMULA rad2m/s2 SHUD ALSO BE CORRECT.

in that it has just found magnitude.. v2/R = w2R in magnitude only .. for units it has units of acceleration only. Consider this again s=rθ which u must hav read in trigo.
So, do u mean than m=rad*m? NO!
