Expert Solution
Step 1

SI unit or International System of Units is the modern form of metric system that is used around the world. There are seven basic units in SI system.

1).Length -  meter (m)

2). Mass - Kilogram (Kg)

3). Time - second (s)

4). Temperature - Kelvin (K)

5).Current - Ampere (A)

6).Amount of substance - mole (mol)

7). Luminous Intensity - Candela (cd)

The given problem can be solved by using the prefix conversion into its base number

1 μm = 10-6 m1 ms = 10-3 s

 

Here, the given quantity is 38  μm/ms
