Centimeters Per Second Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Velocity (v) in centimeters per second is:

\[ v = \frac{d}{t} \]

Where:

\(v\) is the velocity in centimeters per second (cm/s)
\(d\) is the total distance in centimeters (cm)
\(t\) is the total time in seconds (s)

What is Cm Per Second?

Cm per second (cm/s) is a unit of speed or velocity that indicates how many centimeters an object travels in one second. It is commonly used in various scientific and engineering contexts to measure the rate of motion. Understanding this unit is essential for analyzing the speed of objects in experiments, mechanical systems, and other applications where precise measurements of motion are required.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Total Distance (d) = 500 cm
Total Time (t) = 25 seconds

Using the formula to calculate the Velocity:

\[ v = \frac{500}{25} = 20 \text{ cm/s} \]

The Velocity is 20 cm/s.
