The metre per second squared is the unit of acceleration in the International System of Units (SI). As a derived unit, it is composed from the SI base units of length, the metre, and time, the second.
A metre per second squared (or m/s 2 or metre per second per second) is a unit of measurement for acceleration. If an object accelerates at 1 m/s 2, it means that its speed is increasing by 1 m/s every second
Learn what a meter per second squared (m/s²) is, a unit of acceleration that measures velocity change rate. Find out how to convert m/s² to other units of acceleration using conversion tables and instant calculators.
Learn how to calculate acceleration in meters per second squared (m/s2) using the formula: Acceleration = Change in Velocity (m/s) Time (s). See examples of speeding up, slowing down, changing direction and acceleration direction.
The metre (or meter) per second squared is the unit of acceleration in the International System of Units (SI). As a derived unit it is composed from the SI base units of length, the metre, and the standard unit of time, the second. Its symbol is written in several forms as m/s 2, m·s −2, or m s −2.
Learn how to define and calculate acceleration, the change in velocity divided by time, in one dimension. See examples of positive, negative, and zero acceleration, and how to use kinematic equations and graphs.
The metre per second squared, symbol m s −2, is the SI coherent derived unit of acceleration. An object with a constant acceleration of one metre per second squared experiences an increase in velocity of one metre per second over a period of one second.
