About these units
Meter/Minute (m/min)
A meter per minute reflects slow but practical speeds for human or mechanical movement. At 1 m/min, motion is deliberate and controlled—appropriate for precision machining, automated stage equipment, or calibration systems. In exercise science, treadmill incline adjustments, warm-up activity, and walking machines may use m/min for exact gait-speed research. The simplicity of dividing by minutes rather than hours makes the unit useful for short-interval calculations in engineering and ergonomics.
Millimeter/Hour (mm/h)
A millimeter per hour is extraordinarily slow, used in geology, meteorology, and materials science to measure phenomena like soil creep, tectonic plate micro-motion, or extremely light precipitation (drizzle). In manufacturing, mm/h may describe slow deposition rates in thin-film fabrication or high-precision milling processes. Despite seeming negligible, speeds measured in mm/h can accumulate into significant changes over weeks, months, or years—making them essential for long-term studies.
