Kilometer/hour
The kilometer per hour (km/h) is a unit of speed commonly used to express the velocity of vehicles, such as cars and trains. It indicates how many kilometers an object travels in one hour. This unit is widely used in everyday life, especially in transportation and speed limit regulations.
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.
