SOLUTION: In an exponential expression such as A=be^-(t/Rc), we cannot attach units to the exponent -(t/Rc), because a base, such as e, can only be raised to a pure number. Consequently, if

Question 234946: In an exponential expression such as A=be^-(t/Rc), we cannot attach units to the exponent -(t/Rc), because a base, such as e, can only be raised to a pure number. Consequently, if the variable t in this equation is measured in seconds, what does this imply about the units on the product RC?

Since "seconds" (units) is in the numerator
the denominator MUST be "seconds" to cancel it out.
.
Therefore, the units of
RC must be "seconds"
