What does millimeter per square second measure?

It measures acceleration as a change in velocity of one millimeter per second every second, often used for small-scale accelerations.

Why convert to foot per square second?

Foot per square second is used in US customary units for expressing acceleration in fields like vehicle testing and dynamics that require imperial measurements.

Is this conversion suitable for all acceleration types?

No, it works best for constant acceleration and linear motion; complex cases may require more detailed analysis.
