Calculation process of conversion value

1 speed of sound = `(342.603648550333) / (16.9048739495798)` = 20.266560376148 horse speed
1 horse speed = `(16.9048739495798) / (342.603648550333)` = 0.049342364044019 speed of sound
? speed of sound × `(342.603648550333 ("m/s"/"speed of sound")) / (16.9048739495798 ("m/s"/"horse speed"))` = ? horse speed

High precision conversion

If conversion between speed of sound to metre-per-second and metre-per-second to horse speed is exactly definied, high precision conversion from speed of sound to horse speed is enabled.

Since definition contain rounded number(s) too, there is no sense for high precision calculation, but if you want, you can enable it. Keep in mind, that converted number will be inaccurate due this rounding error!

speed of sound

Definition of speed of sound unit: ≡ (1.4 x 286 x (20+273.15) )^-2. Speed of sound in the air. But this speed varies between 295-340 m/s depending on the air temperature and pressure. From the NASA formula I calculated the speed on sea level at 20°C.

Convert Horse speed to other unit:

horse speed

Definition of horse speed unit: ≈ 1½ miles in 2' 22.8". For the base of horse speed, I used the record for 1½ miles (2,414 m) which is 60.86 km/h (37.82 mph) by 3-year-old Hawkster at Santa Anita Park, Arcadia, California, USA on 14 October 1989 with a time of 2min 22.8sec.
