Linear accelerationUnits Type ⤴
Linear acceleration, in physics, is the rate at which the velocity of an object changes over time. Velocity and acceleration are vector quantities, with magnitude and direction that add according to the parallelogram law. The SI unit for acceleration is the metre per second squared (m/s2).
