For translational acceleration, the SI units are meters per second sqaured (m/s²). There's no special name for this "unit" as there is with, say, force, which is kg·m/s² = N.

Acceleration in the change in velocity per unit time. The SI unit of velocity is m/s and the SI Unit of time is s. So acceleration is ms/s=ms*2.

acceleration is measured in meters/seconds^2 (well atleast using SI units)

acceleration is measured in meters per second squared.
Acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2.
