In context
Its unit is m/s², and it has direction, so interpret it together with the sensor axis.
Example
Rotational motion with changing direction also involves acceleration; acceleration does not mean only increasing speed.
Key distinction
Distinguish the units and meanings of position, velocity, and acceleration.
