About Kilometer per Hour (km/h)
Used for vehicle speedometers and speed limits in most countries outside the US and UK, the kilometer per hour is the most widely displayed speed unit on Earth. Highway speed limits typically range from 80 to 130 km/h, and weather services in metric countries report wind speeds in km/h.
About Foot per Second (ft/s)
Used primarily in ballistics, fluid dynamics, and some US engineering applications, feet per second measures relatively slow speeds in imperial units. 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.
