Convert mach (0 Celcius 1 atm) to mile/second (mi/sec)
Selected category: speed.
Definition and details for mach (0 Celcius 1 atm):
Mach (M or Ma) is a relative speed unit, used to compare an aircraft's speed with the speed of the sound in the atmosphere. It was named "Mach" to honor the Austrian physicist Ernst Mach (1838-1916). But because sound speed value depends on the density and temperature of the air, sometimes mach is calculated at 0 ºC and a pressure of 1 atmosphere. Conversion center, here uses these initial conditions.
Definition and details for mile/second (mi/sec):
Mile per second (mps or mi/sec) is a unit of velocity equal to 1609.344 m/sec. This unit is also based on the statute mile as the mph unit.
