Converting from Speed of Light (s) to Speed of Sound in Steel (ssis)

What is Speed of Light (s)

The speed of light, often denoted as c, is the maximum speed at which all energy, matter, and information in the universe can travel. In a vacuum, the speed of light is approximately 3∗108 meters per second (m/s). However, when converting units, we will describe this speed in terms of 's,' where 1 (s) is the unit used to measure speed of light for our calculations.

What is Speed of Sound in Steel (ssis)

The speed of sound in steel (ssis) is how fast sound waves propagate through steel. It is much slower than the speed of light but significantly faster than in many other mediums. The speed of sound in steel is about 5∗104 meters per second (m/s). In our conversions, we will express this speed in terms of 'ssis,' with 1 (ssis) being the unit for speed of sound in steel.

Conversion Formulas

The basic formulas for converting between these two units are:

• To convert from speed of light (s) to speed of sound in steel (ssis):

  ssis=s×50300.75

• To convert from speed of sound in steel (ssis) to speed of light (s):

  s=ssis×0.00001988042

Examples

Here are some examples to illustrate these conversions.

1. Speed of Light to Speed of Sound in Steel

   • For 1(s):
     1(s)=50300.75(ssis)
   • For 14(s):
     14(s)=704210.5(ssis)
   • For 9(s):
     9(s)=452706.7(ssis)
   • For 10(s):
     10(s)=503007.5(ssis)

2. Speed of Sound in Steel to Speed of Light

   • For 1(ssis):
     1(ssis)=0.00001988042(s)
   • For 14(ssis):
     14(ssis)=0.0002783259(s)
   • For 9(ssis):
     9(ssis)=0.0001789238(s)
   • For 10(ssis):
     10(ssis)=0.0001988042(s)

Using these formulas and examples, you can convert between speed of light (s) and speed of sound in steel (ssis) with ease.
