Meter/hour
Meter per hour (m/h) is a unit of speed representing the distance in meters traveled in one hour.
History/Origin
The meter per hour has been used historically in various contexts to measure slow speeds, especially in fields like transportation and engineering, though it is less common today due to the adoption of SI units like meters per second.
Current Use
Currently, meter per hour is primarily used in specialized applications such as measuring slow-moving processes, environmental monitoring, or in certain industrial contexts where precise, low-speed measurements are required.
Cosmic Velocity - Second
Cosmic velocity is the minimum velocity an object must have to escape the gravitational influence of a celestial body without further propulsion.
History/Origin
The concept of cosmic velocity originated in the early 20th century with the development of orbital mechanics and space exploration, initially used to describe escape velocities from planets and the Earth.
Current Use
Cosmic velocity is used in astrophysics and space science to determine escape velocities for spacecraft and celestial bodies, aiding in mission planning and understanding gravitational influences.
