Definition:

The meter per second (symbol: m/s) is the International System of Units (SI) unit of speed or velocity. It is the speed at which an object travels in one second of time, covering a distance of one meter.

History/Origin:

The meter per second was first introduced as a unit of velocity in the 19th century, during the development of the metric system. It was defined as the distance traveled in one second by a body moving at a velocity of one meter per second.

Current Use:

The meter per second is widely used in physics and engineering to express the speed or velocity of an object, such as the speed of a moving vehicle, the velocity of a fluid in a pipe, or the speed of sound in air.
