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 Knot (kn)

Equal to one nautical mile per hour (1.852 km/h), the knot is the universal speed unit in maritime and aviation navigation. Its name comes from the historical practice of measuring a ship's speed by counting knots on a rope paid out over a fixed time. Tropical storm and hurricane wind speeds are reported in knots internationally.
