Centimeters Per Second to Speed Of Light Conversion
Enter the speed in centimeters per second below to get the value converted to speed of light.
How to Convert Centimeters Per Second to Speed Of Light
To convert a centimeter per second measurement to a speed of light measurement, divide the speed by the conversion ratio. One speed of light is equal to 29,979,245,800 centimeters per second, so use this simple formula to convert:
The speed in speed of light is equal to the centimeters per second divided by 29,979,245,800.
Centimeters per second and speed of light are both units used to measure speed. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
Centimeters Per Second
Centimeters per second are a measurement of speed expressing the distance travelled in centimeters in one second.
The centimeter per second, or centimetre per second, is an SI unit of speed in the metric system. Centimeters per second can be abbreviated as cm/s, and are also sometimes abbreviated as cm/sec. For example, 1 centimeter per second can be written as 1 cm/s or 1 cm/sec.
Centimeters per second can be expressed using the formula:
vm/s = dcmtsec
The velocity in centimeters per second is equal to the distance in centimeters divided by time in seconds.
Speed Of Light
The speed of light is equal to exactly 299,792,458 meters per second, or 670,616,629 miles per hour. The definition of the speed of light is actually derived from the most recent 1983 international definition of the meter.[1]
Speed of light can be abbreviated as c, for example 1 speed of light can be written as 1 c.
