Conversion Definitions
The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between inches per second and centimeters per second.
What is inches per second (in/s)?
Inches per second is a unit of Speed or Velocity in both US Customary Units as well as the Imperial System. It measures the number of inches traveled in a second. The symbol for inches per second is in/s. There are 0.3937007874 in/s in cm/s.
What is centimeters per second (cm/s)?
Centimeters per second is a unit of Speed or Velocity in the Metric System. It measures the number of centimeters traveled in a second. The symbol for centimeters per second is cm/s and the International spelling for this unit is centimetres per second. There are 2.54 cm/s in in/s.
Conversion Formula
Let's take a closer look at the conversion formula so that you can do these conversions yourself with a calculator or with an old-fashioned pencil and paper.
The formula to convert from in/s to cm/s is:
cm/s = in/s x 2.54
Conversion Example
Next, let's look at an example showing the work and calculations that are involved in converting from inches per second to centimeters per second (in/s to cm/s).
