m/min to m/s Converter - Meter per Minute to Meter per Second
Meter per Minute (m/min) to Meter per Second (m/s)
Direct answer
1 m/min = 0.0166667 m/s
m/s = m/min × 0.0166667
Converter
Conversion formula
m/s = m/min × 0.0166667
m/min = m/s × 59.9998800002
Example: 10 m/min = 10 × 0.0166667 = 0.166667 m/s.

Explanation for the conversion factor between meter per minute (m/min) and meter per second (m/s)
This conversion factor is used to change a speed from meters per minute to meters per second. The factor 0.0166667 is applied to convert m/min to m/s. The reverse factor of 59.9998800002 is applied to convert m/s to m/min.
Definition
Meter per minute (m/min) and meter per second (m/s) are both metric units of velocity, expressing distance traveled in meters over a specific time unit. The difference is the time base: one uses minutes, the other uses seconds.
Principle
The conversion factor is derived by expressing both units in the same base unit. For the forward conversion, 1 m/min equals 0.0166667 m/s. For the reverse conversion, 1 m/s equals 59.9998800002 m/min.
