A sensor element includes, when three axes orthogonal to one another are set to be an A-axis, a B-axis, and a C-axis, first piezoelectric plate that is configured to have an X cut quartz crystal plate and outputs a charge in response to an external force along the A-axis direction, second piezoelectric plate that is configured to have a Y cut quartz crystal plate, is stacked in the A-axis direction with the first piezoelectric plate, and outputs a charge in response to the external force in the B-axis direction, and third piezoelectric plate that is configured to have a Y cut quartz crystal plate, is stacked in the A-axis direction so as to interpose the second piezoelectric plate between the first piezoelectric plate and the third piezoelectric plate and be arranged to turn around the A-axis, and outputs a charge in response to the external force in the C-axis direction.
