What is the formula to convert from Kilometer/second to Velocity of Light (in vacuum)?

The formula to convert speed value from the unit of Kilometer/second to the unit of Velocity of Light (in vacuum) is:

Speed_{(Velocity of Light (in vacuum))} = Speed_{(Kilometer/second)} × 3.335640951e-9 / 0.001

Kilometer/second unit in Speed

Kilometer per second (km/s) is a unit of speed representing the distance traveled in kilometers in one second. It is primarily used in scientific contexts, such as astrophysics, to describe the speed of astronomical objects.

Velocity of Light (in vacuum) unit in Speed

The velocity of light is the speed at which light travels in a vacuum, approximately 299,792,458 meters per second (or about 186,282 miles per second). It is a fundamental constant in physics, often denoted as 'c'.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about "Kilometer/second ➜ Velocity of Light (in vacuum)" Conversion

1. What is the conversion formula from Kilometer/second to Velocity of Light (in vacuum)?

The formula to convert Kilometer/second to Velocity of Light (in vacuum) in Speed is:

Kilometer/second * 3.335640951e-9 / 0.001

2. How do I convert from Kilometer/second to Velocity of Light (in vacuum) given a value in Kilometer/second units?

To convert Speed from Kilometer/second to Velocity of Light (in vacuum), you can use the following formula:
