    Undergrad Integrating force with respect to acceleration

    So stupid question...but I integrated force with respect to acceleration and got 1/2(ma^2). Is there any "meaning" to this equation. I thought it was jerk but dimensional analysis doesn't give me units of m/s^3 but instead m^2/s^4 which makes no sense.

    Graduate Is There a Hidden Meaning in Integrating the Lorentz Factor with Trig Sub?

    Just for my own entertainment I integrated the Lorentz factor with respect to velocity, using basic trig sub, I got the equation arcsin(v/c)*(mc^2). What does this mean? Is it just useless and irrelevant in the physics world or does it have some sort of hidden meaning?
