Answer 2

Acceleration is the measurement that describes the rate of the changing the speed of the object. Mathematically, that is a = s / t
where a is acceleration, s is speed and t is time. Further, speed is the rate of changing the distance, s = d / t
With this, the unit of time is entered twice in the equation.
