Converting from Speed of Sound in Water (SSiW) to Kilometer per Second (km/s)

What is Speed of sound in water (ssiw)

Speed of sound in water (ssiw) refers to the speed at which sound waves travel through water. It is an important factor in various underwater applications, such as underwater communication and navigation. The speed of sound in water is influenced by factors such as temperature, salinity, and pressure.

What is Kilometer per Second (km/s)

Kilometer per second (km/s) is a unit of speed that represents the distance traveled in kilometers in one second. It is commonly used in physics, astronomy, and other scientific fields to measure high-speed phenomena such as the speed of light or the velocity of celestial bodies.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion between Speed of sound in water (ssiw) and Kilometer per Second (km/s) can be done using the following formulas:

Examples

• Converting 15 (ssiw) to km/s:

  15(ssiw)=15×1.482=22.23(km/s)

• Converting 10 (km/s) to ssiw:

  10(km/s)=10×0.6747638=6.747638(ssiw)

• Converting 8 (ssiw) to km/s:

  8(ssiw)=8×1.482=11.856(km/s)

• Converting 8 (km/s) to ssiw:

  8(km/s)=8×0.6747638=5.398111(ssiw)

• Converting 1 km to 1 hm:

  1hm=1km×10
