It might even be possible to abbreviate it and keep the sense:
velocity:: m_p_s velocity:: mi_p_h acceleration::m_p_s2; reciprocal_time::p_s; reciprocal_mass::p_kg; mass_flow::kg_p_s;
Please, less abbreviations. You, as the inventor of the abbreviations, might find them easy to keep track of, but I, with an aging and rapidly deteriorating memory, find them too cryptic. The elimination of cryptic abbreviated names is for me one of the major advances in programming.
