Speed is distance divided by time.
So : you could have meters per second, or meters per hour, etc.

What is the quantity measured in meters per second called?
Speed or acceleration
What is measured by meters per second per second?
The speed of an object falling from a great height is measured in meters per second per second until it reaches terminal velocity (maximum downward speed).
What is the unit of acceleration measured in kilometers per hour?
Kilometers per hour is used to measure speed, not acceleration. In SI, the acceleration is commonly measured in meters per square second.Kilometers per hour is used to measure speed, not acceleration. In SI, the acceleration is commonly measured in meters per square second.Kilometers per hour is used to measure speed, not acceleration. In SI, the acceleration is commonly measured in meters per square second.Kilometers per hour is used to measure speed, not acceleration. In SI, the acceleration is commonly measured in meters per square 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.
Is wind speed measured in meters per second?
it can be, or in miles per hour or in kilometers per hour or any other speed measurements.
What is average speed SI unit?
Since length is measured in meters, and time in seconds, it follows that speed is measured in meters/second.
What is the SI unit for tangential speed?
meters per second
Constant speed is measured by what?
Velocity is measured in meters/second in the S.I. system.
Why is it measured in meters per second?
Velocity(speed).
What is the quantity measured in meters per second called?
Speed or acceleration
Is speed always measured by miles per hour?
No. Speed can be measured in other ways as well, such as km per hour and meters per second.
What is measured by meters per second per second?
The speed of an object falling from a great height is measured in meters per second per second until it reaches terminal velocity (maximum downward speed).

In SI, the acceleration is commonly measured in meters per square second.
How is speed related distance and time?
Distance will be shown as (d), measured in meters (m). Speed will be shown as (r) (rate), measured in meters per second (m/s). Time will be shown as (t), measured in seconds (s). Distance equals rate multiplied by time. d=r(t)
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.
What is the SI unit of mph?
The SI unit for speed is meters per second.
What are the units for acceleration if speed is measured in meters per minute and time is measured in minutes?
Meters per minute, per minute M/min/min Think of it as "How many meters per minute is gained, per minute"
