The SI unit of time is the second.

Other units of time that are often used are minute, hour, day, week, month, year, century, millenium, as well as decimal fractions of a second such as the millisecond, microsecond, or nanosecond.

How do you convert acceleration units to velocity units?

To convert acceleration units to velocity units, you need to integrate acceleration over time. If acceleration is constant, you can use the equation: velocity = acceleration x time. Make sure the units for acceleration are compatible with the units for time to get the velocity in the desired units.


What are units of acceleration?

Acceleration has units of speed / time. The standard SI-unit is meter/second/second, usually written as meter/second2. Other units of distance/time/time can also be used, but it is convenient (for equations) to use a set of consistent units.


What are the fundamental and derived units?

Fundamental units are the basic units of measurement in a system, like length, time, mass, electric current, temperature, amount of substance, and luminous intensity. Derived units are combinations of fundamental units, like velocity (length divided by time) or force (mass multiplied by acceleration).


Why the time twice in unit acceleration?

Time squared appears in the unit of acceleration because acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. Velocity is measured in units of distance over time, so when you take the rate of change of velocity with respect to time, you have distance over time squared. This is why acceleration is often measured in units like meters per second squared (m/s^2).
