I'm trying to use sagemath to evaluate equations that involve units. And when I hit a sqrt of a unit it won't evaluate it.
For example:
sage: sqrt(4*units.length.meter^2)
2*sqrt(meter^2)
The result should be 2*meter but I can't figure out how to force it to evaluate the sqrt of m^2. Even if I try to convert it like:
(sqrt(4*units.length.meter^2)).convert(units.length.meter)
I get:
ValueError: Incompatible units
