In physics, velocity is most commonly measured in meters per second (m/s). However, you can measure velocity in other units as well.
Here are a few more: feet per second (ft/s), miles per hour (mph).
Please note that velocity is a vector quantity, which means not only do you need a speed but you also need a direction. Many people interchange speed and velocity in common language. Yet most don't understand the difference between the two.
For example, if you say I was going 70 miles per hour on the freeway, you are describing your speed. But if you say I was going 70 mph on the north bound freeway, that is a velocity because it has a direction.
the unit of velocity is m/s
What else can I help you with?
Which of the followin is not a unit used to express velocity?
The list of choices got cut off of your question. Here are some units that don't express velocity: -- dollars -- pounds -- degrees (of temperature) -- degrees (of angles) -- degrees (of freedom) -- weeks -- miles -- miles per hour (without a direction) -- Gs (for "Gravity") -- joules -- watts -- decibels
How do you describe derived units?
Derived units are made by combining base units using mathematical operations such as multiplication and division. They are used to express physical quantities and their combination is necessary to represent more complex measurements, such as velocity or volume. Examples of derived units include meters per second for velocity or cubic meters for volume.
How do you convert acceleration units to velocity units?
To convert acceleration to velocity, you must integrate.Similarly, to convert velocity to distance, you must integrate a second time. This is why the distance covered by a projectile is a second order quadratic equation.
Is velocity a derived unit?
No, velocity is not a derived unit. It is a fundamental physical quantity that measures the rate of change of an object's position with respect to time. Velocity is derived from the fundamental units of length and time.
What is the standard units of velocity?
Velocity is speed and its direction. The units of velocity are any unit of speed and any means of indicating a direction.
Is meters per second a way to express units in velocity?
No, velocity is a vector, not a scalar. Metres per second is a way to express speed but to express velocity you also need a direction.

What are units used to express the volume of gas?
The most common units used to express the volume of gas are liters (L) and cubic meters (m³). Other units such as milliliters (mL) and cubic centimeters (cm³) are also used for smaller volumes.
What units is the most often used to express the size of microbes?
nanometers
