Bullet muzzle velocities are commonly given in fps (e.g., 2,800 fps for a rifle round), and elevator speeds in tall buildings are often specified in feet per second.
About Mile per Hour (mph)
The standard speed unit for road traffic in the United States and the United Kingdom, miles per hour appears on speedometers, speed limit signs, and weather reports in those countries.
