Acceleration, in physics, is the rate of change of velocity of an object. An object's acceleration is the net result of any and all forces acting on the object, as described by Newton's Second Law. The SI unit for acceleration is the metre per second squared (m/s2).

Dear Rakesh,
 
Please do not post exactly same answer which other student has already posted before you. This answer will have no value addition to questioner and will increase one mail at his end unnecessarily. Points earned by this will not be counted for redemption.
 
Thanks

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity it unit is m/s2 that is metre per second square. Formula for acceleration is v-u/t. If acceleration is opposite to the direction of velocity then it is called retardation or decelleration
Please approve my answer
If you have any doubts feel free to ask
