what is the right unit of acceleration?
A
m/s
B
m/s2
C
m/m2
D
m/h
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -, or less commonly, as m/s/s. As acceleration, the unit is interpreted physically as change in velocity or speed per time interval, i.e. metre per second per second and is treated as a vector quantity.

Detailed explanation-2: -Because acceleration is velocity in m/s divided by time in s, the SI units for acceleration are m/s2, meters per second squared or meters per second per second, which literally means by how many meters per second the velocity changes every second. Was this answer helpful?

Detailed explanation-3: -Unit of acceleration is the metre per second per second (m/s2). Definition. The snewton is that force which, when acting on a mass of one kilogramme, produces an acceleration of one metre per second per second. Force = mass × acceleration 1(N) = 1 ( kg ) × 1 ( m/s 2 ) .

Detailed explanation-4: -The SI Unit of acceleration is m/s2. Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity with respect to time.

Detailed explanation-5: -Acceleration is also a vector quantity and is defined as the rate of change of velocity with change in time. The SI derived unit for acceleration is meter per second squared (m/s2).
