Translate Speed Across Any Unit
Different fields and different countries measure speed in different ways. Driving speeds are in kilometers per hour (kph) or miles per hour (mph). Scientific measurements often use meters per second (m/s). Aviation and maritime navigation use knots. This tool instantly translates a speed from any of these units to another, removing confusion and the need for manual conversion factors.
How to Convert Any Speed
Converting speed is a quick, three-step process:
- Value: Enter the speed you want to convert.
- From Unit: Select the unit you are converting from (e.g., 'Kilometers/hour').
- To Unit: Select the unit you want to convert to (e.g., 'Miles/hour').
The calculator will instantly show you the equivalent speed in the new unit.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is a knot?
A: A knot is a unit of speed equal to one nautical mile per hour. A nautical mile is slightly longer than a standard mile. Knots are the standard unit of speed for ships and aircraft.
Q: How do I convert meters per second (m/s) to kilometers per hour (kph)?
A: To convert from m/s to kph, you multiply by 3.6. To convert from kph to m/s, you divide by 3.6. This is a common conversion in physics and engineering problems.
