Knot (UK)
The knot (UK) is the British version of the knot, used similarly to the international knot to measure speed at sea or in the air. It represents one nautical mile per hour, and while the definition is consistent with the international version, it is sometimes distinguished in historical or traditional contexts.
Foot/second
The foot per second (ft/s) is a unit of speed commonly used in the United States to measure the velocity of objects, particularly in engineering and physics. It indicates how many feet are covered in one second and is often used in contexts such as projectile motion or fluid flow.
