Question

What do you mean by acceleration is 2 m/s2?​

Answer 1

Answer:

It means that the velocity of a particle changes by 2 m/s in every 1 sec.

Answer 2

When acceleration is 2 m/s², it means that the velocity is changing at a rate of 2 m/s in one second.

• Acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. It can be said that acceleration tells us how much the velocity of a moving object increases or decreases in a unit amount of time. Increase if acceleration is positive and decrease if it's negative.
• Mathematically, $a=\frac{v-u}{t}$ where, a = acceleration, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity and t = time.
• Here, the given acceleration is 2 m/s², so from the definition, it can be said, that the velocity of the moving body is changing or, increasing by 2 m/s every second.
