Unit Background: Knots & Mach (sea level)
Knots (kn): A knot is one nautical mile per hour. Because a nautical mile is based on the Earth's circumference, knots are the universal standard for maritime and aviation navigation.
Mach (sea level) (M): Mach is the ratio of an object's speed to the speed of sound in the surrounding medium. Mach 1 represents breaking the sound barrier.
