(any unit of length) / (any unit of time)
is a unit that can be used for the magnitude (size) of velocity, and must always
be accompanied by a description of direction. Without it, all you have is a speed,
not a velocity.
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.
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.
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]
metres per second ms-1
Velocity may be expressed as cm/second in CGS units and as m/sec in SI units. Other units include kilometers/hour (kph), miles per hour (mph), and feet/sec (fps)
velocity is expressed in m/s
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.
"Motion" can be expressed in units of speed. Or it might refer to momentum - in which case you would use any unit of mass x velocity.
Momentum is defined as mass times velocity, and it requires units of mass times units of velocity. The SI unit is kilograms x meters / second. There is no special name for this combination of units.
Directions are expressed as units of
The surface area of a shape is expressed in square units.
Here are some international units of measurement:Mass is expressed in kilograms.Length and distance is expressed in meters.Time is expressed in seconds.Electrical current is expressed in amperes.Speed is expressed in meters/second.
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.
Its Distance per Interval of Time. As in miles per hour (mph), or feet per second (fps). Generally the faster the object is traveling, the velocity is expressed in smaller units of time.
