Common unit is meters per second for what?
speed
How do you convert speed in meters per second?
so you calculate for one second howmuch meters do you pass and the number that you had is your speed on meters per second
What is the SI unit for tangential speed?
meters per second
What is the speed if something travels 200 meters in 25 seconds?
its speed =200/25 meters/second = 8 meters/second
Why are the units for acceleration meters per second?
Acceleration is not measured in meters/second. Meters/second is a unit of speed. Since acceleration is defined as change of speed divided by time, the units are meters/second/second, usually written as meters/second2.

How much does its speed change after 5 minutes with an acceleration of 470 meters per second?
"470 meters per second" is a speed, not an acceleration. Assuming you mean "470 meters per second square", that is the same as a change of 470 meters per second every second. Just multiply by the number of seconds to get the change in speed."470 meters per second" is a speed, not an acceleration.

A ball is thrown horizontally from a cliff at a speed of 8 meters per second. What is its speed one second later?
After a second, the ball will still have a horizontal velocity of 8 meters per second. It will also have a vertical velocity of 9.8 meters per second (Earth's acceleration is about 9.8 meters per square second). The combined speed (using the Law of Pythagoras) is about 12.65 meters per second.
What is the speed for the speed of light?

The speed of light and the speed of sound?
The speed of air at 20 degrees Celsius is 343 meters per second. The speed of light is 299 792 458 meters per second.
A ball is thrown horizontally from a cliff at a speed of 9 meters per second What is its speed one second later?
Ignoring air resistance, its horizontal speed is still 9 meters per second, its vertical speed is approx. 9.81 m/s, as the acceleration of gravity is 9.81 meters per second per second.
