Speed: It is defined as the velocity that is created by providing input energy of different kinds that accelerates the body from point A to point B w.r.t time.  Unit of measurement: meter per second (or) kilometer per hour There are different ways of measuring speeds depending on the type of transportation and its descriptions. Here are the different kinds of speed and their typical values which are used in different segments for measuring the speed: Type of Speed Description Typical Value/Range Unit Speed of Light (c) The maximum speed at which all energy, matter, and information in the universe can travel. 299,792,458 meters per second (m/s) Speed of Sound (Mach 1) The speed at which sound travels in dry air at 20°C (68°F). 343 meters per second (m/s) Escape Velocity (Earth) The minimum speed needed for an object to escape Earth’s gravitational pull. 11.2 kilometers per second (km/s) Average Car Speed Typical speed of a car on highways. 100-130 kilometers per hour (km/h) Average Huma

For flying cars to become part of mainstream transportation, both individuals (operators) and manufacturers must adhere to a comprehensive set of certifications, approvals , and safety precautions . These regulations ensure that flying cars are safe to operate in the air and on roads, preventing accidents and ensuring compliance with air traffic laws and environmental standards. Certifications and Approvals for Flying Cars 1. Manufacturers’ Certifications and Approvals Manufacturers need to obtain several approvals to ensure the flying cars they produce meet regulatory, safety, and operational standards: Type Certification (TC) : Issued by aviation authorities such as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the US or the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in Europe. This certification confirms that the design and production of a flying car meet the required airworthiness standards for flight. Manufacturers must pass tests on airframe, propulsion systems, flight contro

Flying Cars are a type of personal or commercial transport vehicle that can travel both on roads and in the air, blending the characteristics of traditional automobiles with those of aircraft. These vehicles are designed to provide a solution to traffic congestion, improve travel efficiency, and open up new possibilities for urban and regional mobility. Types of Flying Cars: Fixed-Wing Flying Cars : These are more like traditional airplanes that require a runway for take-off and landing, but they can also be driven on roads. Example: Terrafugia Transition . Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) Flying Cars : These flying cars don’t need runways and can take off and land vertically, similar to helicopters or drones. Example: AeroMobil and Volocopter . Hybrid Flying Cars : These vehicles combine the functions of both fixed-wing and VTOL. They can take off vertically like a helicopter but also have wings to fly more efficiently like an airplane. Example: Pal-V Liberty . Electric Air Taxis

Implementing some of the best practices in the renewable energy sector under Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions can contribute to sustainability and cover the environmental goals. Below are some of the best practices that can be implemented to minimize the carbon emissions: Scope 1: Direct Emissions 1. Renewable Energy Integration As renewable generating plants like solar, wind, hydro, and biomass are producing electricity is renewable, operation and maintenance activities in the respective sector, replace or reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Invest more in technologies like bio-fuels, Organic waste to energy, and other energy storage systems which can lead to sustainability 2. Energy Efficiency Adopting more energy-efficient technologies and practices in minimizing overall energy consumption. Periodic maintenance and upgradation can improve the efficiency of the system. 3. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Exploring more options and invest in carbon capture technologies to reduce or eliminate
