So ×.62 works for distance too. ? You know what I cant stand is when you buy a quart of milk. And you look at the rack for the price and all tbe prices are in liters.
Yes, works for distance too. Because speed is a measurement of distance covered, so we're still comparing the same things to each other, just with speed we do it in a matter of distance covered within one hour.
Not to get too far off-topic, but speaking of speed: A Boeing 787-9 owned by Virgin Atlantic Airlines hit a groundspeed of 801 mph last Monday. This is a new record for a non-supersonic commercial airliner. The pilot found an amazing 230 mph jetstream tailwind. My personal best is 679 mph in a Jet Blue A 320 from Fort Myers to Boston a year ago.
