We will prove some dynamic inequalities of Opial type on time scales which not only extend some results in the literature but also improve some of them. Some discrete inequalities are derived from the main results as special cases. 1. Introduction In 1960, Opial 1 proved the following inequality: b b − a b 2 x t x t dt ≤ x t dt, 1.1 | | 4 a a where x is absolutely continuous on a, b and x a x b 0 with a best constant 1/4. Since the discovery of Opial inequality, much work has been done, and many papers which deal with new proofs, various generalizations, and extensions have appeared in the literature. In further simplifying the proof of the Opial inequality which had already been simplified by Olech 2, Beescak 3, Levinson 4, Mallows 5, and Pederson 6, it is proved that if x is real absolu
