  2. Radar mile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_mile

    To relate radar timing to distances traveled by radar energy, the speed is used to calculate it. With speed of radar waves at approximately the speed of light in vacuum or 299,792,458 metres per second (300 m/μs; 984 ft/μs) and nautical mile at 1,852 metres (6,076 ft), the delay per nautical mile until the wave return is calculated as:

  3. Counts per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counts_per_minute

    Disintegrations per minute (dpm) and disintegrations per second (dps) are measures of the activity of the source of radioactivity. The SI unit of radioactivity, the becquerel (Bq), is equivalent to one disintegration per second. This unit should not be confused with cps, which is the number of counts received by an instrument from the source.

    0.51444 metres per second (approximately), 1.15078 miles per hour (approximately), 20.25372 inches per second (approximately) 1.68781 feet per second (approximately). The length of the internationally agreed nautical mile is 1 852 m. The US adopted the international definition in 1954, having previously used the US nautical mile (1 853.248 m). [6]

  5. Speed of light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_Light

    The speed of light in vacuum, commonly denoted c, is a universal physical constant that is exactly equal to 299,792,458 metres per second (approximately 300,000 kilometres per second; 186,000 miles per second; 671 million miles per hour).

  7. Foot per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot_per_second

    The foot per second (plural feet per second) is a unit of both speed (scalar) and velocity (vector quantity, which includes direction). [1] It expresses the distance in feet (ft) traveled or displaced, divided by the time in seconds (s). [2] The corresponding unit in the International System of Units (SI) is the meter per second.
