Common speed conversion relationships
Toolmera converts every supported speed through meters per second, then calculates the selected target and full comparison matrix.
The mph and foot-per-second values use international foot and mile definitions, while knots use the international nautical mile.
1 mph0.44704 m/s
1 km/h0.277777… m/s
1 knot0.514444… m/s
When knots and road units differ
Road speeds are commonly expressed in km/h or mph, while marine and aviation speeds commonly use knots. A knot is one nautical mile per hour, not one statute mile per hour.
Toolmera keeps the unit name visible throughout the conversion so those systems are not mixed accidentally.
