Acceleration is a rate of change, over time. Rate of change is a velocity itself, which is "meters per second" - so, "meters per second" increase, per second. This is written as m/s^2.

Is 3 meters per second squared a accurate statement of an acceleration value?

Yes. It's a fine acceleration value, with proper units and dimensions. It's roughly 31% of the acceleration of gravity on earth.

How do you convert acceleration units to velocity units?

To convert acceleration to velocity, you must integrate.Similarly, to convert velocity to distance, you must integrate a second time. This is why the distance covered by a projectile is a second order quadratic equation.

What are the units by which acceleration can be express?

Acceleration can be expressed in units of meters per second squared (m/s^2) in the International System of Units (SI).


Is it possible for a body to have the same acceleration and velocity?

The velocity and acceleration can have the same numeric value, but the units will be different. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No it is not possible. Because so long there is acceleration then the velocity has to change either in magnitude or in direction or in both. So it is not at all possible for acceleration and velocity to be the same simultaneously.


What units are measurements of acceleration given?

the general form of the units for acceleration are distance per time squared, such as m/s2.
