Knot
The knot (kn) is a unit of speed equal to one nautical mile per hour. It is commonly used in maritime and aviation contexts to express the speed of ships and aircraft. The knot is an important unit in navigation, where distances are often measured in nautical miles.
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.
