How to Convert Meters per Second to Speed of Light

To convert from meters per second (m/s) to the speed of light (c), you multiply the number of meters per second by 3.3356409519815204e-9. This is because 1 m/s is equal to 3.3356409519815204e-9 times the speed of light.

Formula

Speed of Light = Meters per Second × 3.3356409519815204e-9

or

c = m/s × 3.3356409519815204e-9

Step-by-step process

  1. Take the measurement in meters per second
  2. Multiply that number by 3.3356409519815204e-9
  3. The result is the equivalent speed in terms of the speed of light

Examples

  • 1 m/s = 3.3356409519815204e-9 c
  • 10 m/s = 3.3356409519815204e-8 c
