In the metric system the base units for measurement of velocity (speed) is meters for distance and time in seconds, making the standard base formula for velocity meters per second. For very small or very large measurements, the SI prefixes of centi-, deci-, micro-, kilo-, etc., may be used ahead of meters, and time can be converted to milliseconds, microseconds, hours, minutes, days, or any other measurement of the passage of time.
