FAQ

Common questions 3 questions

What are the common speed units for travel?

Miles Per Hour (MPH) is standard in the US and UK. Kilometers Per Hour (KM/H) is the global standard. Knots are used for maritime and aviation travel.

What is a knot?

A knot is a unit of speed equal to one nautical mile per hour (approximately 1.15 miles per hour or 1.85 kilometers per hour), primarily used in navigation.

What is the metric speed standard?

The SI (International System of Units) standard for velocity is meters per second (m/s), though km/h is more common for automotive use.
