About these units
Kilometer/Minute (km/min)
A kilometer per minute corresponds to 60 km/h per unit, making it a useful measure for high-speed trains, rockets, and conceptual velocity comparisons. It is too fast for normal transportation but too slow for astrophysical use, placing it in a niche area: intermediate high-speed phenomena. Engineers may use km/min to quickly estimate travel times or evaluate rapid mechanical processes. It offers a convenient stepping stone between km/h and km/s.
Yard/Hour (yd/h)
A yard per hour is extremely slow and used only in rare cases where long-term monitoring of tiny movements is necessary—such as soil settlement in construction sites, creeping machinery, or long-term structural drift. Because the yard is an everyday imperial unit, yd/h sometimes appears in engineering logs or legacy datasets, though it is largely replaced by ft/h or mm/h in modern practice. Its use reflects the persistence of imperial measurements in certain specialized contexts.
