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.
Meter/second
The meter per second (m/s) is a unit of speed or velocity in the metric system, representing the distance traveled in meters over one second. It is commonly used in physics and engineering to describe how quickly an object is moving or how fast a process is occurring. This unit is fundamental in scientific contexts, where precise measurements of speed are required.
