JudyA Newton-Meter per second squared is the unit of measurement for force per unit mass, also known as acceleration. It represents the force required to accelerate an object with a mass of 1 kilogram at a rate of 1 meter per second squared. This unit is commonly used in physics to quantify the acceleration of an object under the influence of a force.
Well, darling, a Newton-Meter per second squared is the unit of measurement for force. It represents the amount of force needed to accelerate an object with a mass of one kilogram by one meter per second squared. So, in simpler terms, it's all about how hard you gotta push something to make it move faster.
Force / distance / time? Never heard of it. Could you mean Newton Meter per Second (Force x Distance / time) in which case the answer is a Watt (SI unit of power) EDIT - by RCCOLA - SI unit of resistance Newton/ (m/s) = (N*s) / m I have seen and calculated problems with this as a drag force. So a "Newton per meter per second" is a resistance unit. example: A drag force of 17N is experienced by a R/C boat traveling at 15km/hr. RD= F/v Where RD = drag resistance, F = Force, and v = speed RD= 17N/15km/hr = 4.09 Newtons per meter per second (convert km to m and hr to s)

What is the standard SI unit for measuring acceleration?
The unit is meters per second squared (m/s2)Meters per second squared, or m/(s2). This should not be interpreted as "the square of a second" but instead as "meters per second, per second."
If an object accelerates at 3 meters per second squared when a 10-newton force is applied to it what force would cause this object to accelerate at 6 meters per second squared?
F = ma, so if mass is constant, you need to double the force to double the acceleration. The answer is 20 N.
What are the units of of measure for velocity and acceleration?
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. In other words, it is velocity divided by time. As velocity (in SI) is expressed in metres per second, acceleration must be measured in 'metres per second per second'. In fact, this is the correct way of 'saying' the unit of measurement for acceleration, NOT 'metre per second squared'. The symbol for metres per second per second is 'm/s/s' which, of course, is exactly the same as m/s2 (where 2 is a superscript).
What unit of measurement is used for acceleration?
m/s², or meter per squared second. Acceleration is the amount by which speed increases. So if in t=0 a body moves at 5 meters per second, and in t=1 it is moving at 10 meters per second, it is accelerating, and the acceleration rate is 5 meters per second per second. Thus, 5(m/s)/s = 5 m/s²
If a shoe is dropped from a height of 40m what is its speed after falling for two seconds?
Regardless of the height from which it is falling, (neglecting air resistance) it's speed will be 19.62 metres per second. (Acceleration from gravity is 9.81 metres per second squared, so after 1 second it is moving at 9.81 metres per second and after 2 seconds it is moving at 19.62 metres per second.
