Kilometer/hour
Kilometer per hour (km/h) is a unit of speed expressing the number of kilometers traveled in one hour.
History/Origin
The km/h unit originated from the metric system, developed in France during the late 18th century, and became widely adopted for measuring speed in transportation and scientific contexts.
Current Use
Km/h is commonly used worldwide to specify vehicle speeds, speed limits, and other applications involving the measurement of speed in everyday life and transportation systems.
Velocity Of Sound In Pure Water
The velocity of sound in pure water is the speed at which sound waves propagate through water under ideal, pure conditions, typically measured in meters per second (m/s).
History/Origin
The measurement of sound velocity in water has been studied since the 19th century, with early experiments by physicists like Lord Rayleigh, contributing to the understanding of acoustic properties of water and its dependence on temperature, pressure, and salinity.
Current Use
The velocity of sound in water is used in underwater acoustics, sonar technology, oceanography, and environmental monitoring to determine water properties, map underwater features, and facilitate communication and navigation.
