Unit definitions

Kilometer per minute

Kilometer per minute is the distance traveled in kilometers in one minute.

Kilometer per second

Kilometer per second is the distance traveled in kilometers in one second.

How to convert Kilometer per minute to Kilometer per second

$$\text{Speed}_{\text{km/s}} = \frac{\text{Speed}_{\text{km/min}}}{60}$$

Examples

Example 1

Convert $30.0\ \text{km/min}$ to $\text{km/s}$.

$$\text{Speed}_{\text{km/s}} = \frac{30.0}{60}$$

$$\text{Speed}_{\text{km/s}} = 0.5$$

$$\therefore \ 30.0\ \text{km/min} = 0.5 \ \text{km/s}$$

Example 2

Convert $75.0\ \text{km/min}$ to $\text{km/s}$.

$$\text{Speed}_{\text{km/s}} = \frac{75.0}{60}$$

$$\text{Speed}_{\text{km/s}} = 1.25$$

$$\therefore \ 75.0\ \text{km/min} = 1.25 \ \text{km/s}$$

Example 3

Convert $110.0\ \text{km/min}$ to $\text{km/s}$.

$$\text{Speed}_{\text{km/s}} = \frac{110.0}{60}$$

$$\text{Speed}_{\text{km/s}} = 1.833333$$

$$\therefore \ 110.0\ \text{km/min} = 1.833333 \ \text{km/s}$$

Example 4

Convert $140.0\ \text{km/min}$ to $\text{km/s}$.

$$\text{Speed}_{\text{km/s}} = \frac{140.0}{60}$$

$$\text{Speed}_{\text{km/s}} = 2.333333$$

$$\therefore \ 140.0\ \text{km/min} = 2.333333 \ \text{km/s}$$

Example 5

Convert $195.0\ \text{km/min}$ to $\text{km/s}$.

$$\text{Speed}_{\text{km/s}} = \frac{195.0}{60}$$

$$\text{Speed}_{\text{km/s}} = 3.25$$

$$\therefore \ 195.0\ \text{km/min} = 3.25 \ \text{km/s}$$
