  1. Yes, the standard units for speed are m/s. Speed equals distance travelled over time elapsed. Since distance is measured in m and time is measured in s, speed is measured in m/s.


  2. Speed means mass movement throughout the space, and distance is usually measured in meters.  The word "movement" implies changing physical position, so movement implies time.  The final connection is a movement in distance, or meters per time.  We usually measure time in seconds, so meters per second, or speed=m/s.

  3. yes, speed or velocity is m/s (meters per second)
