Velocity is measured as a unit of distance over time as in miles/hour (miles per hour). feet/second, kilometers/hour. It is the same as a measurement of speed except that there is also a direction component as in north or southwest. If you change the direction travel but maintain the same speed, it is still a change in velocity even though it is not a change in speed..
There is no synonym to velocity. there is no directionality in velocity. speed is a measure of rotation around a center expressed in revolutions per unit of time. Velocity is a measure of distance in units of time with no direction. Vectors indicate direction.
Velocity is displacement per unit time. Therefore the units of velocity are derived units (ms-1)
Velocity is speed and its direction. The units of velocity are any unit of speed and any means of indicating a direction.
What are the SI units used to measure acceleration.
An acceleration is not a velocity - it is the rate of change of velocity. In SI units, the units of velocity are meters/second. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, per unit time - how fast the velocity changes. Therefore, its units are velocity / time. In SI units, this gives you (meters/second) / second, usually written as meters/second2.

You don't. The units are unrelated - they measure different things.
because they measure different aspects of the same thing, velocity also has direction but speed lacks direction. otherwise they are the same.
Velocity is the measure of speed in a given direction. Although the SI measurement units for both are metres per second, there must be an explicit or implied direction for velocity.

What are the SI units used to measure acceleration.
The SI unit for velocity is m/s. Therefore the SI units for velocity squared would be m2/s2.

A change in the position of an object is called a displacement. Velocity is the measure of the rate of change of displacement with respect to time.
The units are the same (metres per second) except that the velocity also has the direction of motion associated with it.
For a start, acceleration doesn't even have the same units as velocity: acceleration is a velocity divided by time, so while speed or velocity have units of [distance]/[time], acceleration has units of [distance]/[time squared]
