Shouldn't area divided by volume be height, not length? It would also fit better with the graph.

:For dimensional analysis, you don't care about the physical context of the units, just about the dimension they are associated with. Height is horizontal length, so it has the dimension of length. In the context of the comic this length can be interpreted as a height, but in another context, it could be a length in a different orientation.

+ | ::Area divided by volume is 1/length, not length (x^2/x^1 = x^-1). To get a scalar length the formula should be volume/area [[User:Militarycoo|Militarycoo]] ([[User talk:Militarycoo|talk]]) 22:27, 8 July 2020 (UTC) | ||
