About these units

Velocity of Light (in vacuum)

The velocity of light (c) is a constant that represents the speed at which light travels in a vacuum, approximately 299,792,458 meters per second. It is a fundamental constant in physics and is used in various equations, such as Einstein's theory of relativity. This speed is the upper limit for the speed at which information or matter can travel.

Centimeter/second

The centimeter per second (cm/s) is a unit of speed that represents how many centimeters an object travels in one second. It is often used in scientific contexts where detailed measurements of small movements are needed, such as in fluid dynamics or biological processes.
