  2. Speed of sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_sound

    T 25 is 298.15 K (= 25 °C = 77 °F), giving a value of 346.1 m/s (= 1 135.6 ft/s = 1246 km/h = 774.3 mph = 672.8 kn). In fact, assuming an ideal gas , the speed of sound c depends on temperature and composition only, not on the pressure or density (since these change in lockstep for a given temperature and cancel out).

  3. Speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed

    The fastest possible speed at which energy or information can travel, according to special relativity, is the speed of light in vacuum c = 299 792 458 metres per second (approximately 1 079 000 000 km/h or 671 000 000 mph).

    For comparison, the fastest known 400m lap was skated by Pavel Kulizhnikov on 9 March 2019 in Salt Lake City during his 500-meter world record race, with a lap time of 23.94 seconds and an average speed of 60.15 km/h (37.38 mph).

  5. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

    The grade (US) or gradient (UK) (also called stepth, slope, incline, mainfall, pitch or rise) of a physical feature, landform or constructed line is either the elevation angle of that surface to the horizontal or its tangent. It is a special case of the slope, where zero indicates horizontality. A larger number indicates higher or steeper ...

  6. Speed limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_limit

    Research in 1998 showed that the reduction of some 30 mph (48 km/h) United Kingdom speed limits to 20 mph (32 km/h) had achieved only a 1 mph (1.6 km/h) drop in speeds and no discernible reduction in accidents; 20 mph (32 km/h) speed limit zones, which use self-enforcing traffic calming, achieved average speed reductions of 10 mph (16 km/h ...

    The four passenger GEM NEV uses 169 Wh/mi (199 mpg‑e; 10.5 kW⋅h/100 km), [28] which equates to 2.6 kWh/100 km per person when fully occupied, albeit at only 24 mph (39 km/h). The General Motors EV1 was rated in a test with a charging efficiency of 373 Wh-AC/mile or 23 kWh/100 km [ 67 ] approximately equivalent to 2.6 L/100 km (110 mpg ...
