Jul 5 at 23:05	comment	added	Henry		If $s$ is distance and $t$ is time, you would interpret $v=\frac{ds}{dt}$ as instantaneous velocity with dimension $[\text{Distance}]\cdot [\text{Time}]^{-1}$ and $a=\frac{dv}{dt}=\frac{d^2s}{dt^2}$ as acceleration $[\text{Distance}]\cdot [\text{Time}]^{-2}$. You can do something similar with integrals.
