About these units
Centimeter/Hour (cm/h)
A centimeter per hour is used in fields where extremely slow processes are tracked, including seepage rates in soil hydrology, chemical diffusion fronts in laboratory experiments, and biological growth in certain organisms. Urban planning and material science may use cm/h to describe settlement rates in soft soils or long-term deformation of structural components. Although rarely used in public communication, cm/h is invaluable in precision scientific contexts where even a centimeter over an hour represents meaningful change.
Foot/Hour (ft/h)
A foot per hour is almost comically slow, yet still relevant in specific technical fields. Pipeline corrosion creep, structural deformation, glacial shifts, and certain chemical processes may be measured in ft/h when imperial units are required. While practically invisible to human perception, speeds expressed in ft/h become meaningful over long intervals, providing insight into incremental natural or mechanical change.
