Conversion number between speed of light [c] and metre per second [m/s] is 299792458. This means, that speed of light is bigger unit than metre per second.
Switch to reverse conversion:
from metre per second to speed of light conversion
| [c] |
Result in metre per second

Definition of speed of light unit: ≡ 299 792 458 m/s. Light velocity (in vacuum) is one of the basic physical constants. Sign c (Latin celeritas = speed). Its value is exactly: 299792458 m/s. Example: electromagnetic waves propagation speed 1 c.
Definition of metre per second unit: ≡ 1 m / 1 s. Derived SI unit, although in everyday life km/h or mph is a more common unit. How many metres a body moves in a second. The speed of a walking person is approx. 1.4 m/s.
