About these units
Millimeter/Minute (mm/min)
A millimeter per minute is a slow mechanical speed often encountered in CNC machining, automated laboratory equipment, and controlled industrial processes. In medicine, infusion pumps, surgical robotics, and controlled incisions may specify movement in mm/min to maintain safety and precision. By using millimeters instead of centimeters or meters, the unit ensures fine control in delicate operations where even small deviations matter.
Mile/Second (mi/s)
A mile per second is an extraordinarily fast speed—3,600 mph—far beyond any ground vehicle. This unit appears primarily in discussions of orbital mechanics, rocket propulsion, and reentry dynamics. Projectiles in theoretical physics or high-energy impact modeling may also be described in miles per second. The unit's infrequent use reflects its specialized nature, but its dramatic magnitude makes it compelling for illustrating the extremes of velocity attainable in space travel and astrophysics.
