About Mach (Ma)
The Mach number expresses speed as a ratio to the local speed of sound, which varies with temperature and altitude. At sea level and 20 degrees C, Mach 1 is approximately 1,235 km/h. Fighter jets routinely exceed Mach 2, and the retired Concorde cruised at Mach 2.04.
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.
