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.
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.
