(b)The dimensions of LHS are

[M] [L T–1 ]2= [M] [ L2 T–2]
= [M L2T-2]
The dimensions of RHS are (2)
[M][L T-2] [L] = [M][L22T-2]
= [M L2 T-2]
The dimensions of LHS and RHS are the same
and hence the equation is dimensionally correct.
25.(a)When the lift moves upwards with a uniform speed, its acceleration is zero.
R = mg = 70 x 10 = 700 N (1)
(b)When the lift moves downwards with a = 5 ms-2
R = m (g – a) = 70 (10 – 5) = 350 N (1)
(c)When the lift moves upwards with a=5 ms-2
R = m (g + a) = 70 (10 + 5) = 1050 N (1)
(d)If the lift were to come down freely under gravity, downward acceteration a = g
:. R = m(g -a)
= m(g-g) = Zero. (1)
