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.
Mile/second
The mile per second (mi/s) is a unit of speed representing the number of miles an object travels in one second. This unit is extremely fast and is generally used in contexts such as space exploration or when describing the speed of meteors or other fast-moving astronomical objects.
