    "temperature": pd.Series([20, 22, 31, 16], dtype="unit[deg_C]")
})
temps["temperature"].units.to("deg_F")

...

df = pd.DataFrame({
    "distance": pd.Series([10, 12, 22, 18], dtype="unit[km]"),
    "time": pd.Series([50, 60, 120, 108], dtype="unit[min]")
})
speed = df["distance"] / df["time"]
speed.units.to_si()
