2. Mach number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach_number

   The Mach number is named after the physicist and philosopher Ernst Mach [3] according to a proposal by the aeronautical engineer Jakob Ackeret in 1929. [4] The word Mach is always capitalized since it derives from a proper name, and since the Mach number is a dimensionless quantity rather than a unit of measure, the number comes after the word Mach; the second Mach number is Mach 2 instead of ...

3. Supersonic speed - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersonic_speed

   Supersonic speed is the speed of an object that exceeds the speed of sound (Mach 1). For objects traveling in dry air of a temperature of 20 °C (68 °F) at sea level, this speed is approximately 343.2 m/s (1,126 ft/s; 768 mph; 667.1 kn; 1,236 km/h). Speeds greater than five times the speed of sound (Mach 5) are often referred to as hypersonic.

4. Speed of light - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_Light

   For example, in imperial units, the speed of light is approximately 186 282 miles per second, [Note 4] or roughly 1 foot per nanosecond. [ Note 5 ] [ 15 ] [ 16 ] In branches of physics in which c appears often, such as in relativity, it is common to use systems of natural units of measurement or the geometrized unit system where c = 1 .

5. Airspeed - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airspeed

   Airspeed is commonly given in knots (kn). Since 2010, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) recommends using kilometers per hour (km/h) for airspeed (and meters per second for wind speed on runways), but allows using the de facto standard of knots, and has no set date on when to stop.

7. Orders of magnitude (speed) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(speed)

   Typical scanning speed of an audio compact disc; the speed of signals (action potentials) traveling along axons in the human cortex. 1–1.5. 3.6–5.4. 2.2–3.4. 3.3–5.0 × 10 −9. Average walking speed—below a speed of about 2 m/s, it is more efficient to walk than to run, but above that speed, it is more efficient to run.
