Converting from Minutes per kilometer (min/km) to Meter per second (m/s) in Speed

What is Minutes per kilometer (min/km)

Minutes per kilometer (min/km) is a unit used to measure the time it takes to cover one kilometer. It indicates the number of minutes required to travel a distance of one kilometer.

What is Meter per second (m/s)

Meter per second (m/s) is a unit of speed that represents the distance traveled in meters in one second. It is a common metric unit used to measure the speed of an object.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from minutes per kilometer (min/km) to meter per second (m/s), you can use the following formula:

Speed (m/s)=Speed (min/km)1000​

To convert from meter per second (m/s) to minutes per kilometer (min/km), you can use the formula:

Speed (min/km)=Speed (m/s)1000​

Examples

1. Converting 16 minutes per kilometer (min/km) to meter per second (m/s):

161000​=62.5 m/s

2. Converting 7 meter per second (m/s) to minutes per kilometer (min/km):

71000​≈142.857 min/km

3. Converting 15 minutes per kilometer (min/km) to meter per second (m/s):

151000​≈66.667 m/s

These conversion formulas allow you to easily switch between minutes per kilometer (min/km) and meter per second (m/s) to compare and interpret speed measurements.
