Important for units
I think this will come in handy for you.As you never know when you are asked to calculate the unit of a variable.
Here is the order
PQ:Physical quantities.
SI:SI Units.
DF:Dimensional formula.
1.
PQ:Velocity = Displacement/Time
SI:m/s
DF:[M0L1T-1]
2.

SI:m/s2
DF:[M0L1T-2]
3.
PQ:Force=mass*acceleration
SI:Kg-m/s2=Newton
DF:[MLT-2]
4.
PQ:Work=Force*Displacement

Can one rememember all the formulae and can put it when asked without any mistake. NO doubt ur work is great.
But one must remember the formulae how it is derived.
