Description

Knot (kn) in Maritime and Aviation

The knot (kn) is a unit of speed equal to one nautical mile per hour, commonly used in maritime and aviation contexts. It simplifies navigation and speed calculations over the Earth's surface, which is divided into nautical miles.

Exploring Kilometer per Second (km/s)

Kilometer per second (km/s) measures velocity, indicating how many kilometers an object travels in one second. It's primarily used in astrophysics and space sciences to express high velocities, such as the speed of celestial bodies. For example, Earth's orbital speed around the Sun is approximately 29.78 km/s.
