What is centimetre per second?

Centimetre per second is a unit of speed used in low-velocity applications such as biological locomotion studies, microfluidics research, and slow-moving mechanical systems.

What is kilometre per second?

Kilometre per second is a unit of speed equal to 1,000 metres per second. It is used in astrophysics, rocket propulsion, and the measurement of planetary and cosmic velocities.

Worked examples

1 centimetre per second = 0.00001 kilometre per second
