The metre per second squared 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 time, the second.

A metre per second squared (or m/s2 or metre per second per second) is a unit of measurement for acceleration. If an object accelerates at 1 m/s 2, it means that its speed is increasing by 1 m/s every second .
The newton (symbol: N) is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as , the force which gives a mass of 1 kilogram an acceleration of 1 metre per second squared. It is named after Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on classical mechanics, specifically his second law of motion .
The SI unit for acceleration is metre per second squared ( m⋅s−2, ). For example, when a vehicle starts from a standstill (zero velocity, in an inertial frame of reference) and travels in a straight line at increasing speeds, it is accelerating in the direction of travel.
The SI comprises a coherent system of units of measurement starting with seven base units, which are the second (symbol s, the unit of time ), metre (m, length ), kilogram (kg, mass ), ampere (A, electric current ), kelvin (K, thermodynamic temperature ), mole (mol, amount of substance ), and candela (cd, luminous intensity ).
