Km/h² or m/s/s are the appropriate units of the acceleration.

Acceleration is the rate change of velocity of an object. it is given by

a=ΔV/Δt

Δv= change in speed

Δt= time taken

Δv is measured in meter of km

Time is measured in second s or hour h

so the units of acceleration are km/h² or m/s/s
