    75 m/s is faster

    Explanation:

    MKS units stands for meter kilogram seconds

    75 miles per hour = 75 mph

    1 mile = 1609.34 meters

    1 hour = 60*60 = 3600 seconds

    1 mph = 1609.34/3600 = 0.44704 m/s

    75 mph = 75*0.44707 = 33.52792 m/s

    Comparing 75 mph = 33.52792 m/s with 75 m/s it can be seen that 75 m/s is faster. Even without calculating the values you can know the answer. 75 mph means that in 1 hour the object will move 75 miles. 75 m/s means that in one second the object will cover 75 meters multiply by 3600 and you will get 270000 m/h that is 270 km/h divide it by 1.6 and you can approximately get the value in mph that will be around 168 mph which is faster than 75 mph.
