What is acceleration per second?

A common example is the gravity of Earth, you may have heard that the gravity of Earth is 9.81 meters per second per second and you probably had no idea what that meant considering that you asked this question. read more

Just like acceleration is rate of change of velocity (m/s)/s; similarly (m/s^2)/s would be rate of change of acceleration. read more

Velocity is defined as change in position per unit time, or per second. Acceleration is defined as change in velocity per unit time, or per second. So, the definition of acceleration can be broken down to: The change in (change in position per second) per second. So, the formula becomes: (m/s)/s = m/s^2. read more
