What are possible units of speed or velocity?

Answer 1

Any unit of length divided by any unit of time is a unit of speed.

A few examples include . . .

-- meter per second

-- mile per hour

-- foot per minute

-- light-year per millenium

-- furlong per fortnight

-- smoot per week

-- knot (one knot is 1 nautical mile per hour)

Answer 2

Commonly used units are obtained by dividing a unit of length by a unit of time, for example, meters/second, or kilometers/hour. There are also speed units that don't explicitly relate to a length and a time, such as the "knot", or "fraction of the speed of light".

Answer 3

Answer #1:

The most common unit of speed is kilometer per hour in the UK,

and miles per our in the US. In the air and on water, it is measured

in knots.

==================================

Answer #2:

(any unit of length)/(any unit of time) is a perfectly good unit of speed. Then, tell the direction

of the length, and you have a velocity. Possible units of speed or velocity are miles per hour (symbol mi/h or mph; metres per second (symbol m s−1 or m/s), kilometers per hour (symbol km/h); ;

Answer 4

i think that it is hours but don't tell your teachers

no its not its m/s

Answer 5

m/s
The standard SI unit of speed is the m/s, metres per second. Speed = Distance/ Time

Answer 6

(Any unit of length) divided by (any unit of time) is a unit of speed.

Answer 7

Use any unit of length, divided by any unit of time. Km/h is commonly used for speeds of people, cars, and aircraft; but in science, m/s is used instead (that's the official SI unit).

Answer 8

distance divided by time

Answer 9

distance divided by speed equals to speed
