Velocity Scale Reference

m/h ⇔ m/s
1 m/h ⇔ 0.000278 m/s
100 m/h ⇔ 0.0278 m/s
1,000 m/h ⇔ 0.278 m/s
3,600 m/h ⇔ 1 m/s
18,000 m/h ⇔ 5 m/s
36,000 m/h ⇔ 10 m/s

Motion Examples

Very Slow Motion:
• Glacier movement: 1-10 m/h
• Plant growth: 0.1-1 m/h
• Tectonic plates: 0.001-0.1 m/h
• Stalactite formation: 0.0001 m/h
Slow Processes:
• Snail crawling: 36 m/h (0.01 m/s)
• Tortoise walking: 720 m/h (0.2 m/s)
• Tree sap flow: 100-1,000 m/h
• Groundwater flow: 10-100 m/h
Moderate Speeds:
• Human walking: 18,000 m/h (5 m/s)
• Bicycle riding: 54,000 m/h (15 m/s)
• River current: 3,600-14,400 m/h
• Wind speed: 7,200-72,000 m/h

Velocity Units
