Convert second cosmic velocity to meter per second
Second Cosmic Velocity
The second cosmic velocity is the minimum speed required for an object to escape Earth's gravitational field entirely without further propulsion, also known as escape velocity. It is derived from the condition that the object's kinetic energy equals its gravitational potential energy at Earth's surface. For Earth, the second cosmic velocity is approximately 11.2 km/s.
Meter per Second
The meter per second (m/s) is the SI unit of speed and velocity, defined as the distance in meters traveled in one second. It is the standard unit for expressing velocity in science, engineering, and many international contexts. One meter per second equals 3.6 kilometers per hour or approximately 2.237 miles per hour.
