Define the term “Speed” as employed in rotating machines, and state its (S.I)
units.

anyone know the answer? is it rad per second?

I suspect it's angular velocity, which indeed has the unit rad/s.
 
Explain why “Torque-Speed” matching is important in designing motor-driven
machines. Illustrate your answer with torque-speed plots characteristic of:

i) A fan load

ii) A high static friction load
