Meter/minute
Meter per minute (m/min) is a unit of speed representing the distance in meters traveled in one minute.
History/Origin
The meter per minute has been used historically in various fields such as manufacturing and transportation to measure speed, especially before the widespread adoption of SI units. It is a derived unit based on the meter, the SI base unit of length, and the minute, a unit of time.
Current Use
Today, m/min is primarily used in specific industrial and engineering contexts to measure linear speed, particularly where minute-level precision is sufficient, although the SI unit meters per second (m/s) is more common in scientific applications.
Yard/hour
Yard per hour (yd/h) is a unit of speed representing the distance of one yard traveled in one hour.
History/Origin
The yard has been a traditional unit of length in the imperial and US customary systems, and units like yard per hour have historically been used for measuring slow speeds, especially in contexts like textiles and manufacturing. Its usage has declined with the adoption of metric units.
Current Use
Yard per hour is rarely used today, primarily in specialized or historical contexts. It may still be referenced in certain industries or for conversions involving imperial units, but it is largely replaced by metric units such as meters per second or kilometers per hour.
