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.
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.
