The dimensions of acceleration are:
Correct answer: B. LT-2
- A. LT-1
- B. LT-2
- C. L3
- D. L2
- E. LT2
Explanation
The following is the solution:Acceleration =Difference of velocity/TimeVelocity =Distance/TimeVelocity =L/TTherefore:Acceleration =LT-1/TAcceleration =LT-2

About Measurements
Physical quantities are expressed with SI base and derived units, while measurement limits are described through accuracy, precision, absolute and percentage error, and significant figures. Dimensional analysis checks equations, derives relationships and detects inconsistent units, but it cannot determine numerical constants or distinguish quantities with identical dimensions.
