Meters per second (m/s) is the unit of which physics concept?
A
Acceleration
B
Velocity
C
Time
D
Distance
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The metre per second is the unit of both speed (a scalar quantity) and velocity (a vector quantity, which has direction and magnitude) in the International System of Units (SI), equal to the speed of a body covering a distance of one metre in a time of one second. The SI unit symbols are m/s, m·s−1, m s−1, or ms.

Detailed explanation-2: -The meter per second (symbolized m/s or m/sec) is the Standard International ( SI ) unit of linear speed. This quantity can be defined in either of two senses: average or instantaneous. where the added and subtracted numbers represent seconds.

Detailed explanation-3: -Since the derivative of the position with respect to time gives the change in position (in metres) divided by the change in time (in seconds), velocity is measured in metres per second (m/s).
