About these units
Yard/Minute (yd/min)
A yard per minute is used in sports coaching, physical training, and some industrial processes. Coaches may track a swimmer's or runner's speed informally using yards per minute, especially in regions where yard-based pools or tracks still exist. Certain fabric and material-feed systems also use yd/min to specify production speed, as textiles and printing industries historically measured length in yards. The unit bridges athletic training and industrial applications in imperial-unit contexts.
Centimeter/Second (cm/s)
A centimeter per second is widely used in hydrology, biology, and physics to measure modest fluid flows, blood velocities, small organism movement, or lab-scale chemical transport. In medicine, cm/s is important in Doppler ultrasound, where blood flow speeds in arteries and veins are routinely measured. In physical sciences, cm/s appears in low-speed fluid mechanics experiments, sediment transport studies, and oceanographic microcurrent analysis. It offers a convenient, human-comprehensible scale for small but dynamic systems.
