Why it's so fast

Something is fast when the push forward still beats whatever is holding it back: air, water, gravity, or the rules of a game. The entry's own figure stays the sourced one.

  1. A mechanism, then a number

    This note says what kind of fast the category is. It does not replace the measurement at the top of the page, and it does not add a figure the sources did not say.

  2. Peers are the same kind of fast

    Comparisons belong with entries that were measured the same way. A different list is a different question.

This is how the category works. A note written for this entry appears here once it is in the database.
