How to Measure Acceleration. The standard unit of measurement for acceleration is meters per second squared or m/s 2. You can calculate this from the above formula where velocity is meters per second and time is in seconds. Acceleration is a Vector. In physics acceleration not only has a magnitude (which is the m/s 2 number we discussed above), but also has a direction. This makes acceleration a vector. Force and Acceleration. Newton's second law of motion states that the force on an object equals the mass times the acceleration. This is written in the following equation: We can use this formula to also figure out the acceleration if we know the mass and force on an object.
Cover and cook for 6 to 8 minutes longer or until done. Chicken is done when the white meat reaches 170Â° to 175Â°F and the dark meat reaches 180Â°F. The cooking temperature typically reaches 450ÂºF to 650ÂºF when grilling over direct heat.

Close the lid and allow it to cook for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. To reduce the cooking time, use a knife or kitchen scissors to remove the backbone and press the chicken flat, skin-side-down, so that it is butterflied open before seasoning it and placing it on the grill.
