Definition

  • The $\ extit{meter per Square second}$ 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 $m/s^2$, or $m s^{-2}$. As acceleration, the unit is interpreted physically as change in velocity or speed per time interval, that is, $\ extit{metre per second per second}$.
