Speed is often represented by an 's' in equations and an appropriate unit is m/s

Speed is often represented as a lower case 's' in equations.

A good example of this equation is speed = distance / time or s=d/t (in it's symbol form).


m/s or metres per second (in it's word form) is a common unit for speed.

An example of this in use is describing a car moving at 15m/s
