Final answer:

The units and dimensions of a and b in the equation y = at³ + bt² represent physical quantities such as acceleration and initial velocity

Step-by-step explanation:

The units and dimensions of the variables a and b in the equation y=at³+bt² represent the physical quantities and their magnitude.

The unit of measurement for 'a' will be meters per second cubed (m/s³) and 'b' will be meters per second squared (m/s²).

Physically, 'a' represents the acceleration and 'b' represents the initial velocity of the particle.
