Converting from Mach number ((M)*) to Kilometer per second (km/s) in Speed

What is Mach number ((M)*)

Mach number ((M)*) is a unit of speed relative to the speed of sound in the medium. It is commonly used in aviation and aerospace to represent the speed of an object as a multiple of the speed of sound.

What is Kilometer per second (km/s)

Kilometer per second (km/s) is a unit of speed that measures the distance traveled in kilometers per second. It is a standard unit in the International System of Units (SI) for measuring high-speed velocities.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from Mach number ((M)*) to Kilometer per second (km/s), you can use the formula:

km/s=(0.34029)×((M)∗)

To convert from Kilometer per second (km/s) to Mach number ((M)*), you can use the formula:

((M)∗)=(2.93867)×(km/s)

Examples

1. Converting 4 ((M)*) to Kilometer per second:

km/s=(0.34029)×4=1.36116

2. Converting 15 (km/s) to Mach number:

((M)∗)=(2.93867)×15=44.08005

3. Converting 10 ((M)*) to Kilometer per second:

km/s=(0.34029)×10=3.4029

4. Converting 4 (km/s) to Mach number:

((M)∗)=(2.93867)×4=11.75468

This page provides an easy way to perform conversions between Mach number ((M)*) and Kilometer per second (km/s) for speed measurements.
