Acceleration= rate of change of speed
Wiki User
∙ 12y ago"Meter per second squared" is a unit of acceleration."10" of them is very close to the acceleration of gravity on earth,usually taken to be 9.8 .
Any time you see a number that has units of [ Length/time2 ], you know that the number is an acceleration. That number of ' 10 ' is pretty close to the acceleration of gravity on Earth ... 9.807 m/s2 .
9.8 meters per second square
meters per second per second OR meters per second squared. They are both the same this, but meteres per second squared is easier to write.
10 meters/second2 refers to an acceleration. It is the same as 10 (meters/second) / second, and means that every second, the speed changes by 10 meters/second.
Acceleration of the object.
Ten meters per second squared, or ten meters per second per second is the term used for acceleration. In this case it is referring to the acceleration caused by gravity. If you were on the top of a steep cliff and threw a ball over the side, it would accelerate at 10 meters per second squared. So after 10 meters is would be going 20 meters a second.
The acceleration of gravity.
... approximate acceleration of gravity at the surface of the earth.A better figure to carry around is 9.8 meters per second squared.
"Meter per second squared" is a unit of acceleration."10" of them is very close to the acceleration of gravity on earth,usually taken to be 9.8 .
32 feet per second squared equates to 35,112.96 meters per minute squared.
Acceleration is a change in speed, measured per second and so would be meters per second per second or meters per second squared.
10metres/second2 = acceleration very close to earth's gravity of 9.8m/s2
Any time you see a number that has units of [ Length/time2 ], you know that the number is an acceleration. That number of ' 10 ' is pretty close to the acceleration of gravity on Earth ... 9.807 m/s2 .
To convert meters to feet, multiply by 3.281. It does not matter about the "per second squared" since that is present in both sides.
g is a measurement of acceleration namely 9.8 meters per second squared. When there is an acceleration of 2g then simply multiply 9.8 meters per second squared times 2 or 19.6 meters per second squared.
