Velocity consists of any unit of speed, plus a direction.
A unit of speed is (any unit of length or distance) divided by (any unit of time).
Examples:
-- inches per second
-- feet per second
-- meters per second
-- miles per hour
-- kilometers per hour
-- furlongs per fortnight
-- yards per week

What is the unit of velocity in SI unit system?
meter/second or ms-1
Is air velocity measured in cubic feet?
No, the standard unit (SI unit) for any velocity is ms-1
What is the SI unit for speed and velocity?
The SI unit for speed and velocity are the same: meter per second (m/s)
What is the si unit for average velocity?
The SI unit for velocity (average, starting, final,usual, extraordinary, lowest. highest, but NOT angular) is metres per second.
What unit is air velocity measured in?
Ft/min
Which best describe what occurs when a body acceleration?
Change in velocity per unit time Change in velocity per unit time Change in velocity per unit time change in velocity per unit time.
What is the difference between volicity and accleration?
Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).
What is S.i unit for wave velocity?
The SI unit for ANY velocity is meters / second.
What is the difference between and accleration?
Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).Acceleration is a change of velocity (per time unit).
Are the units for velocity?
A unit of speed is (any unit of length) divided by (any unit of time). A unit of velocity is any unit of speed, along with a direction.
Is velocity a derived unit?
Velocity is displacement per unit time. Therefore the units of velocity are derived units (ms-1)
What is the unit of velocity in SI unit system?
meter/second or ms-1
How you can derive the velocity unit?
velocity=distance / time
Velocity is distance time knowing this what are the SI units of velocity?
The velocity is distance per unit time and the SI unit is m/s.
Equations for velocity?
Velocity = distance / unit of time
What is the differnece between speed acceleration and velocity?
Velocity is the change in displacement in a unit time in a specific direction. Speed is the magnitude of velocity and has no direction. Acceleration is the change in velocity in a unit time.
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.
