Kilometer/second
The kilometer per second (km/s) is a unit of speed that represents how many kilometers an object travels in one second. This unit is often used in astronomy and space science to describe the velocities of celestial bodies and spacecraft, as these speeds are far beyond those encountered in everyday life.
Centimeter/second
The centimeter per second (cm/s) is a unit of speed that represents how many centimeters an object travels in one second. It is often used in scientific contexts where detailed measurements of small movements are needed, such as in fluid dynamics or biological processes.
