Understanding Speed Units
Speed is the rate at which an object covers distance. Different fields and regions use different units to measure it.
Common Units
- MPH (Miles per Hour): Used in the US and UK for road traffic.
- KPH (Kilometers per Hour): The standard for road traffic in most other countries.
- Knots: Used in aviation and maritime contexts. 1 Knot = 1 Nautical Mile per hour.
- m/s (Meters per Second): The SI unit for speed, used in physics and engineering.
- Mach: Used for high-speed aircraft. Mach 1 is the speed of sound (~767 mph at sea level).
