At the equator, the earth spins at 1600 km/h. Meaning everything that isn't very well secured is turning into a projectile. That would be a today problem

The unit you are looking for is km/h. Both capitalisation and multiplication (division) matter with units.

You haven't heard about the new unit kilometerhours? The conversion is a simple formula. X = KMH, Y = km/h

(((x2)+5)-(5+(2x)))+x=y

I think KPH is the preferred acronym. km/h is the proper unit of course.
