This post parallels a post I made in electrical engineering regarding the S plane. I thought I would post an equivalent in basic physics.
So, given a graph of velocity vs time we have on the vertical axis meters/sec and the hormonal axis just meters. Given a plot of V vs t we know the area under the curve is equal to distance and the slope of the curve is acceleration. What would be the units of the magnitude of a vector (polar form) on the graph. Lets say M = square root (V^2 + t^2). What is the unit of M.
