Want this question answered?
Acceleration is expressed in meters/second2, not in meters. Normal Earth gravity produces an acceleration of 9.8 meters/second2.
Yes. The number of 'G' in an acceleration is the acceleration in [ meters per second2 ] divided by 9.8Or the acceleration in [ feet per second2 ] divided by 32.2
"Meters" is not a unit of acceleration.The acceleration of gravity on or near the surface of the Earth is about9.8 meters/second2 .It's different in other places.
Since acceleration is (change of speed) / (time), the most logical choice for units is (meter / second) / second, which is usually written as meter / second2. Actually, any unit of length can be divided by two units of time (the same unit squared, as above, or two different units, as in kilometers / hour / second). But calculations will be simpler if you stick to the standard SI units, in this case, meter / second2.
Radians/second2.
meter/second2.
In the SI, acceleration is expressed in meters / second2.
There is no unit of "gravity". Gravity is described in terms of its effects, namely acceleration and force. SI unit of force: [ newton ] = 1 kilogram-meter/second2 SI unit of acceleration: meter/second2
The same units as are used for any type of acceleration. In the SI, that would be meters/second2.
cgs: centimeter per second2mks: meter per second2
The SI unit is meters/second2. You can alternately use any other units of (length) / (time) / (time).
Acceleration is expressed in meters/second2, not in meters. Normal Earth gravity produces an acceleration of 9.8 meters/second2.
It represents an acceleration of 1 metre per second2 in a mass of 1 kilogram.
Yes. The number of 'G' in an acceleration is the acceleration in [ meters per second2 ] divided by 9.8Or the acceleration in [ feet per second2 ] divided by 32.2
"Meters" is not a unit of acceleration.The acceleration of gravity on or near the surface of the Earth is about9.8 meters/second2 .It's different in other places.
Meter / second / second, usually written as meter/second2, is the unit. There is no special name for this unit. It is a unit used for acceleration.
"Acceleration" means "rate of change in velocity, and the direction of the change". So acceleration is (change in velocity) divided by (time for the change), plus the direction. (Any unit of speed) divided by (any unit of time) is a unit of acceleration. Some possibilities include: -- feet per second2 -- meters per second2 -- miles per hour per second -- furlongs per week per fortnight -- smoots per month per day . . etc. To complete the acceleration vector, it also needs to include a direction.
