Sound particle acceleration

Applicable units are those of quantitykind:Acceleration

In a compressible sound transmission medium - mainly air - air particles get an accelerated motion: the particle acceleration or sound acceleration with the symbol a in $m/s2$. In acoustics or physics, acceleration (symbol: $a$) is defined as the rate of change (or time derivative) of velocity.
