    1 km/h = 0.2 7 m/s (exactly) [9] Relation to other measures. The benz, named in honour of Karl Benz, has been proposed as a name for one metre per second. [10]

  4. Speed of sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_sound

    T 25 is 298.15 K (= 25 °C = 77 °F), giving a value of 346.1 m/s (= 1 135.6 ft/s = 1246 km/h = 774.3 mph = 672.8 kn). In fact, assuming an ideal gas , the speed of sound c depends on temperature and composition only, not on the pressure or density (since these change in lockstep for a given temperature and cancel out).

  5. Kilometres per hour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilometres_per_hour

    Speed limit sign in the Republic of Ireland, using "km/h.". The SI representations, classified as symbols, are "km/h", "km h1" and "km·h1".Several other abbreviations of "kilometres per hour" have been used since the term was introduced and many are still in use today; for example, dictionaries list "kph", [3] [4] [5] "kmph" and "km/hr" [6] as English abbreviations.

  6. Supersonic speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersonic_speed

    [1] [2] Supersonic speed is the speed of an object that exceeds the speed of sound (Mach 1). For objects traveling in dry air of a temperature of 20 °C (68 °F) at sea level, this speed is approximately 343.2 m/s (1,126 ft/s; 768 mph; 667.1 kn; 1,236 km/h

  7. T-18 tank - Wikipedia

    Following the German invasion of the Soviet Union a number of MS-1s were given 45 mm (1.8 in) guns with T-26/BT-5 gun mounts and entered service. Contrary to popular belief, tanks with 45 mm guns were never called T-18M; the T-18M was a 1938 prototype with simpler cupola, different drive sprocket, GAZ-M1 50 hp engine and removed rear bustle ...

  8. Knot (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knot_(unit)

    The knot (/ n ɒ t /) is a unit of speed equal to one nautical mile per hour, exactly 1.852 km/h (approximately 1.151 mph or 0.514 m/s). [1] [2] The ISO standard symbol for the knot is kn. [3]
