Answer:
K must be an acceleration
Explanation:
Recall that unit of energy consists the following dimensions:
mass * length^2 / time^2
then if we have : mass * K = energy / length
then the units of K can be obtained by replacing the units of energy by (mass * length^2 / time^2), and then dividing by units of mass:
K = (mass * length^2 / time^2)/ (length * mass)
where we cancel out units of mass, and one unit of length resulting in units of length divided units of time squared. and such are units of acceleration. Therefore K must be an acceleration.
