Converting from Mile per second (mps) to Speed of sound in steel (ssis)

What is Mile per second (mps)

Mile per second (mps) is a unit of speed that measures distance traveled in miles in one second. It is commonly used in the United States and other countries that utilize the imperial system. To understand mps, one can remember that there are 5280 feet in a mile and this unit helps describe speeds that can be relatively high, such as in automotive or aerospace contexts.

What is Speed of sound in steel (ssis)

The speed of sound in steel (ssis) refers to the speed at which sound waves travel through steel material. This speed is much faster than in air due to the density and elastic properties of steel. The value of the speed of sound in steel is approximately 5,960 meters per second. This unit becomes significant in fields like engineering and materials science, where understanding material properties is crucial.

Conversion Formulas

To convert between these two units, you can use the following formulas based on the default conversion values:

• To convert mps to ssis:

  ssis=mps×0.2700242

• To convert ssis to mps:

  mps=ssis×3.703372

Examples

1. Converting 1 mps to ssis:

   1mps=1×0.2700242=0.2700242ssis

2. Converting 9 mps to ssis:

   9mps=9×0.2700242=2.430217ssis

3. Converting 14 mps to ssis:

   14mps=14×0.2700242=3.780338ssis

4. Converting 11 mps to ssis:

   11mps=11×0.2700242=2.970266ssis

5. Converting 9 ssis to mps:

   9ssis=9×3.703372=33.33035mps

6. Converting 14 ssis to mps:

   14ssis=14×3.703372=51.84721mps

7. Converting 11 ssis to mps:

   11ssis=11×3.703372=40.7371mps
