1 km/s = 1000 m/s
1 Kilometer per second (km/s) = 1000 Meter per second (m/s).
If you want to reverse convert, use Meter per second → Kilometer per second. 1 m/s = 0.001 km/s. You can also explore the full Speed converter page for more cross conversions.
Conversion formula
Kilometer per second to Meter per second formula: value in m/s = value in km/s × 1000.
Meter per second to Kilometer per second formula: value in km/s = value in m/s × 0.001.
How to convert Kilometer per second to Meter per second
To convert Kilometer per second to Meter per second, multiply the value in km/s by 1000. This gives the result in m/s.
For example, 1 km/s = 1000 m/s and 10 km/s = 10000 m/s.
What is Kilometer per second?
Kilometer per second (km/s): A scale suited to orbital and other very high speeds. 1 km/s = 1 000 m/s.
What is Meter per second?
Meter per second (m/s): Distance covered each second in SI mechanics. 1 m/s = 3.6 km/h.
FAQ
How many meter per second are in 1 kilometer per second?
There are 1000 m/s in 1 km/s.
Why can conversion results differ slightly?
Check the unit definition and rounding. US and imperial measures can differ; rounding intermediate values can also change the final digits.
How do I convert kilometer per second to meter per second?
Multiply the value in km/s by 1000 to get the value in m/s.
