in SI units it is m3 / second
Also it can be in litres / second (LPS) Gallons per minute (GPM) is also another way of denoting it

What is the Flow rate of one fixture unit?
3 gpm
What is a unit rate of power?
Power is the rate of flow or usage of energy. 1 Watt = 1 Joule per second
Is the unit of speed a basic unit or a derived unit?
It is a derived unit. It measure distance traveled per unit of time. For example meter per second or m/s. Speed or velocity as it is sometimes called is derived from the units for distance and time.
What units are used to measure mass flow rates?
Let us assume you want the flow rate of water from a pipe such as a garden hose . First, the flow rate must be constant . So don't change the position of the tap handle controlling the outward flow. You need 2 things. A clock with a second hand, and a container which has a known fluid volume, such as a kitchen measuring container (say 1/2Litre capacity. ) Now when the second hand is on 12 quickly let all the water flow into the 1/2 Litre container. When the container is perfectly full to the 1/2Litre marking , very quickly remove the container from the water source and at the same instant, take note of how many seconds and/or minutes it took to fill the container. Suppose it took 45 seconds , then the flow rate measured in 'Litre/ Minute' will be 1/2 Litre in 45/60 minutes. This is of course that same as 0.5 Litre per 0.75 minute which equals 0.5 divided by 0.75 Litre/ minute. Answer is therefore 0.6666 Litre/Minute. Flow rate is commonly measured using the units Litre/Minute . It is also often measured in Gallon/Minute, or Litre/Hour or Gallon/Hour. It depends how powerful the flow is . Flow rate of water out of a Reservoir can be measured in megalitres per minute. Sometimes it is measured in Cubic Feet/Minute. The choice of units is your choice but it will always involve a Volume unit and a Time unit.
What is the unit used to measure electric flow?
The SI unit for measuring an electric current is the ampere, which is the flow of electric charge across a surface at the rate of one coulombper second.
What derived unit is appropriate for expressing the rate of water flow?
ML
Cusec is unit of?
Flow rate (volume).
What is the unit for measuring the rate of electron flow in a circuit?
Electron flow is known as current. SI unit is Ampere
What is meant by flow rate?
The flow rate may be defined by the quantity of a fluid which can be transportted through a hole with a given area in an unit of time.
What does GPM mean for a water pump?
Gallons per minute, a unit of volumetric flow rate
What is the unit of electricity current flow?
The unit quantity of electricity is the Coulomb. The rate of electricity flow in coulombs per second is the Ampere, sometimes shortened to Amp. Note: current doesn't flow, instead current itself is a flow rate (flow of coulombs of charge per second.) When coulombs are flowing, the flow rate is measured in amperes.
What is the Flow rate of one fixture unit?
3 gpm
Unit for mesuring rate of electrons flow in a circuit?
Ammeter.
What is difference between flow rate and flow velocity in flow tubes?
velocity is the speed of the flow (for example, meters/sec.) Flow rate is the volume per unit time (example: liters/sec.)
What is a unit rate of power?
Power is the rate of flow or usage of energy. 1 Watt = 1 Joule per second
What is the current flow of one coulomb per secound?
That is called an Ampere. By the way, in the SI the Ampere is defined as a base unit; the Coulomb is the derived unit.
What is a unit of measuring rate of electron flow in a circuit called?
Electron flow is known as 'current' the unit of current is an amp
