The fastest-moving plates are the oceanic plates, with the Cocos Plate advancing at a rate of 75 millimetres (3.0 in) per year [17] and the Pacific Plate moving 52–69 millimetres (2.0–2.7 in) per year. At the other extreme, the slowest-moving plate is the Eurasian Plate, progressing at a typical rate of about 21 millimetres (0.83 in) per year.
Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. A fast-moving object has a high speed and covers a relatively large distance in a given amount of time, while a slow-moving object covers a relatively small amount of distance in the same amount of time.
Transversal time dilation. The blue dots represent a pulse of light. Each pair of dots with light "bouncing" between them is a clock. In the frame of each group of clocks, the other group is measured to tick more slowly, because the moving clock's light pulse has to travel a larger distance than the stationary clock's light pulse.
Moving walkway inside the Changi Airport station of the Singapore MRT. A moving walkway, also known as an autowalk, [1] moving pavement, [2] moving sidewalk, [3] travolator, [4] or travelator (British English), [5] is a slow-moving conveyor mechanism that transports people across a horizontal or inclined plane over a short to medium distance.

A time-lapse camera can be mounted to a moving car for example to create a notion of extreme speed. However, to achieve the effect of a simple tracking shot, it is necessary to use motion control to move the camera. A motion control rig can be set to dolly or pan the camera at a glacially slow pace. When the image is projected it could appear ...

At a walking pace; flowing; moderately slow tempo Andantino: a little bit walking: Less of a walking pace than andante (so slightly quicker) A tempo: to time: Return to previous tempo Fermata: held, stopped, orig.

Slow may refer to various basic dictionary-related meanings: Slow velocity, the rate of change of position of a moving body Slow speed, in kinematics, the magnitude of the velocity of an object; Slow tempo, the speed or pace of a piece of music; Slow motion, an effect in film-making; Slow reaction rate, the speed at which a chemical reaction ...
