About these units

Walking Speed (walk)

The average human walking speed is about 1.2–1.4 m/s (4–5 km/h), though this varies with fitness, terrain, age, and purpose. Walking is an energy-efficient mode of locomotion optimized through millions of years of evolution. Humans unconsciously adjust stride frequency, step length, and posture to maintain stability and minimize metabolic cost. Urban planning, pedestrian-safety engineering, and architecture all use walking-speed estimates to design sidewalks, crosswalk timing, and public transportation access. Walking speed is not merely a physical measure—it reflects physiology, psychology, and cultural context.

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.
