How to use it

  1. Type the value in the meters per minute box.
  2. Read the result in kilometers per hour as you type, and pick the precision you need.
  3. Swap the direction to convert back, or copy the result.

How it is calculated

km/h = m/min × 0.06

Multiply the value in meters per minute by 0.06 to get kilometers per hour.

Example

To convert 25 m/min to kilometers per hour: 25 × 0.06 = 1.5 km/h.

About the units

Meter per minute
Covering one meter in one minute, exactly 1/60 m/s. It is used for walking pace, production lines and conveyor belts.
Kilometer per hour
Covering 1000 meters in 3600 seconds, so 1 km/h is exactly 1/3.6 m/s. It is the unit on road signs and car speedometers in most countries.

Limits and caveats

  • Results are rounded for display and computed with the browser's floating point precision (about 15 significant digits).
  • Both unit factors are exact by their official definitions.

Questions about this tool

How many kilometers per hour are in one meter per minute?

1 m/min = 0.06 km/h exactly.

How do I convert meters per minute to kilometers per hour?

Use km/h = m/min × 0.06. For example, 25 m/min = 1.5 km/h.

How many meters per minute are in one kilometer per hour?

1 km/h = 16.6667 m/min.

How do I convert km/h to m/s in my head?

Divide by 3.6, because an hour is 3600 seconds and a kilometer is 1000 meters. For example 72 km/h is 20 m/s; multiply by 3.6 to go back.

Why do Mach values differ between sources?

The speed of sound depends on air temperature. We use 340.294 m/s at sea level and 15 °C; at 11 km altitude it is about 295 m/s, so Mach 1 is slower there.
