Common speed conversions
Each of these has its own page with the formula, a values table and both directions.
Every speed unit on this page
- meter per second m/s
- The SI unit of speed, expressing how many metres an object travels each second.
- kilometer per hour km/h
- How many kilometres are covered each hour, the standard road speed unit nearly everywhere outside the USA and UK.
- mile per hour mph
- How many miles are covered each hour, used for road speeds in the USA, UK, and a few other countries.
- knot kn
- One nautical mile per hour, the standard unit of speed for sea and air navigation worldwide.
- foot per second ft/s
- How many feet are covered each second, often used in engineering and physics applications.
- kilometer per second km/s
- How many kilometres are covered each second, used for extremely fast objects like spacecraft and atmospheric entry speeds.
- centimeter per second cm/s
- How many centimetres are covered each second, used in precise measurements and scientific contexts.
- inch per second in/s
- How many inches are covered each second, used in engineering and some technical applications.
- mile per minute mi/min
- How many miles are covered each minute, rarely used but appearing in some aviation and racing contexts.
- Mach Ma
- The speed of sound in the surrounding air. The value used here is Mach 1 at standard sea level (15°C, 101.325 kPa), where it equals 340.29 metres per second — at higher altitudes and different temperatures, the speed of sound differs significantly.
- speed of light c
- The speed at which light travels through a vacuum, the ultimate cosmic speed limit at 299,792,458 metres per second.
