About these units
Yard/Second (yd/s)
A yard per second is a moderately fast speed, equal to 3 ft/s or 0.9144 m/s, used in some athletic contexts—particularly American football or sprinting analysis. It provides an intuitive measure for sports where yard-based distances dominate. Because the unit aligns with common field dimensions, it simplifies performance evaluation in training and gameplay. The yard per second reflects the enduring influence of imperial measurements in American athletics.
Centimeter/Minute (cm/min)
A centimeter per minute is a very slow but measurable speed, ideal for documenting the movement of small mechanical devices, capillary flow, microfluidics, or slow conveyor systems. Medical applications include infusion pump rates, which may sometimes be described in cm/min when relating to catheter insertion or microdroplet transport speed. Because centimeters align with everyday physical intuition, this unit strikes a balance between precision and accessibility in niche scientific applications.
