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.
Foot/hour
Foot per hour (ft/h) is a unit of speed representing the distance of one foot traveled in one hour.
History/Origin
The foot per hour has historically been used in engineering and construction to measure slow speeds, especially in contexts where imperial units are standard. Its usage has declined with the adoption of metric units and more common speed measurements like meters per second or miles per hour.
Current Use
Today, foot per hour is rarely used in practical applications but may still appear in specialized fields such as certain engineering, construction, or scientific contexts where imperial units are maintained.
