Free Speed Converter

Speed limits switch between mph and km/h at every border, sailors think in knots, and runners think in minutes per mile. This free speed converter handles them all — road, marine, aviation and physics units — converting instantly with a complete comparison table.

ℹ️Mach 1 is about 1,225 km/h at sea level (15 °C); it varies with altitude and temperature.

Features

Six speed units: km/h, m/s, mph, ft/s, knots and Mach. Results update as you type, the swap button reverses direction instantly, and every equivalent appears in the table below.

Benefits & Use Cases

Drivers abroad, pilots, sailors, cyclists and physics students all get trustworthy numbers in one step. Mach conversions use sea-level standard conditions, noted clearly so you know the assumption.

Tips

To estimate mph from km/h, multiply by 0.6 (100 km/h ≈ 62 mph — close to the true 62.1). One knot is one nautical mile per hour, about 1.852 km/h.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert km/h to mph?

Multiply by 0.621371. For example, 100 km/h = 62.14 mph.

How fast is one knot in km/h?

Exactly 1.852 km/h.

What speed is Mach 1?

About 1,225 km/h (761 mph) at sea level at 15 °C. It drops with altitude as air temperature falls.

How many m/s is 100 km/h?

27.78 m/s — divide km/h by 3.6.
