Foot/second
Foot per second (ft/s) is a unit of speed representing the distance of one foot traveled in one second.
History/Origin
The foot per second has been used historically in engineering, physics, and aeronautics, originating from the imperial measurement system where the foot is a standard unit of length. Its usage predates the metric system and has been common in the United States and other countries using imperial units.
Current Use
Today, ft/s is primarily used in fields such as physics, engineering, and aviation to measure speeds, especially in contexts where imperial units are standard. It is also used in sports and safety standards related to speed measurements.
Velocity Of Sound In Sea Water (20°c, 10 Meter Deep)
The velocity of sound in seawater at 20°C and 10 meters depth, approximately 1,480 meters per second.
History/Origin
The measurement of sound velocity in seawater has been essential for underwater acoustics, sonar technology, and marine research since the early 20th century, with values influenced by temperature, salinity, and pressure.
Current Use
Used in oceanography, submarine navigation, and acoustic communication to determine distance, map the seafloor, and study marine environments.
