Convert millimeter/hour to meter/minute

Please provide values below to convert millimeter/hour [mm/h] to meter/minute [m/min], or Convert meter/minute to millimeter/hour.

1 mm/h = 1.66666666467e-05 m/min. To convert millimeter/hour to meter/minute, multiply the value by 1.66666666467e-05; to go the other way, divide by it (1 m/min = 60000.000072 mm/h). Both units measure speed and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Millimeter/hour

Millimeter per hour (mm/h) is a unit of measurement that indicates the rate of rainfall or precipitation, representing how many millimeters of water fall in one hour.

History/Origin

The millimeter per hour has been used in meteorology and hydrology to quantify rainfall intensity, especially with the advent of precise rain gauges and weather measurement tools in the 20th century.

Current Use

Today, mm/h is commonly used in weather forecasting, climate studies, and hydrological assessments to measure and communicate the intensity of rainfall events.


Meter/minute

Meter per minute (m/min) is a unit of speed representing the distance in meters traveled in one minute.

History/Origin

The meter per minute has been used historically in various fields such as manufacturing and transportation to measure speed, especially before the widespread adoption of SI units. It is a derived unit based on the meter, the SI base unit of length, and the minute, a unit of time.

Current Use

Today, m/min is primarily used in specific industrial and engineering contexts to measure linear speed, particularly where minute-level precision is sufficient, although the SI unit meters per second (m/s) is more common in scientific applications.


Frequently Asked Questions

What is 1 millimeter/hour in meter/minute?

1 millimeter/hour (mm/h) = 1.66666666467e-05 meter/minute (m/min).

How do you convert millimeter/hour to meter/minute?

Multiply the millimeter/hour value by 1.66666666467e-05. For example, 25 mm/h × 1.66666666467e-05 = 0.000416666666167 m/min.

What is 10 millimeter/hour in meter/minute?
