Suppose that the night before your big physics exam you stayed up late watching stand - up physics comedians. Sides sore from having laughed too hard you come to class and are in the middle of the test when you get stuck. You are doing a calculation problem and know the answer must have units of velocity and are searching for a possible formula. Which of the following formulae would work for the problem?
A) acceleration x time
B) acceleration / time
C) velocity squared x distance
D) mass / volume
