5 days ago · Ground Speed: The speed at which the aircraft moves relative to the ground, influenced by wind conditions. The Difference Between V-Speeds and Mach Number While V-speeds are specific airspeeds crucial for safe aircraft operation, the Mach number is a dimensionless unit representing the ratio of an aircraft's true airspeed to the speed of sound.
2 days ago · With the test server in place, the Speed Test sends a simple signal (a ping) to the server, and it responds. The test measures that roundtrip in milliseconds. After the ping is complete, the download test begins. The client opens multiple connections to the server and attempts to download a small piece of data.
5 days ago · scalar, a physical quantity that is completely described by its magnitude. Examples of scalars are volume, density, speed, energy, mass, and time. Other quantities, such as force and velocity, have both magnitude and direction and are called vectors. Scalars are described by real numbers that are usually but not necessarily positive.
