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.
Mile/Hour (mi/h)
The mile per hour represents the number of miles traveled in one hour and is commonly used in the United States, the UK (in road contexts), and several other countries with legacy imperial systems. mph is deeply woven into cultural habits: driver training, speed limits, vehicular performance, and even athletic achievements are often expressed in miles per hour. In science and engineering, however, mph is rarely used because the mile and hour are not SI units. Still, mph retains strong emotional and historical associations—for example, the significance of a car "breaking 200 mph" or the legendary "88 mph" in popular culture. It persists because measurement units often survive long after their historical origins fade.
