Examples

1

A spacecraft travels at a speed of 8 kilometers per second.
Convert this speed from kilometers per second to Mach (SI standard).

Answer:

Given:

The speed in kilometer/second is:

Speed(Kilometer/second) = 8

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from kilometer/second to mach (si standard) is:

Speed(Mach (SI standard)) = Speed(Kilometer/second) × 0.0033892974 / 0.001

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Speed(Kilometer/second) = 8 in the above formula.

Speed(Mach (SI standard)) = 8 × 0.0033892974 / 0.001

Speed(Mach (SI standard)) = 27.1144

Final Answer:

Therefore, 8 km/s is equal to 27.1144 mach.

The speed is 27.1144 mach, in mach (si standard).

2

A meteor enters the Earth's atmosphere at 15 kilometers per second.
Convert this speed from kilometers per second to Mach (SI standard).

Answer:

Given:

The speed in kilometer/second is:

Speed(Kilometer/second) = 15

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from kilometer/second to mach (si standard) is:

Speed(Mach (SI standard)) = Speed(Kilometer/second) × 0.0033892974 / 0.001

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Speed(Kilometer/second) = 15 in the above formula.

Speed(Mach (SI standard)) = 15 × 0.0033892974 / 0.001

Speed(Mach (SI standard)) = 50.8395

Final Answer:

Therefore, 15 km/s is equal to 50.8395 mach.

The speed is 50.8395 mach, in mach (si standard).

Kilometer/second

The kilometer per second (km/s) is a unit of speed that represents how many kilometers an object travels in one second. This unit is often used in astronomy and space science to describe the velocities of celestial bodies and spacecraft, as these speeds are far beyond those encountered in everyday life.

Mach (SI standard)

The Mach number (Mach) is a dimensionless unit used to express the speed of an object relative to the speed of sound in the surrounding medium. A Mach number of 1 indicates the speed of sound, with higher numbers representing supersonic or even hypersonic speeds. This unit is critical in aerodynamics and aerospace engineering.
