I don’t know about the way in which baseball is reported in the US, but the 
British TV tends to use mph for the speed at which balls are delivered in 
cricket and in tennis. Personally, I have never seen either a tennis ball or a 
cricket ball travelling for an hour, so using m/s makes eminent sense, 
especially if you know how long a tennis court is (23 m from baseline to 
baseline) or a cricket pitch (20 m between stumps).

Hello all,

On my cell phone weather app I selected m/s instead of knots and Pascals 
instead of millibars and i am still getting use to the units in my mind as i 
have Celsius and km.

 

You can share the way you were able to adopt.

Be Well,

Edward Schlesinger
