Convert yard / second to mach

Learn how to convert 1 yard / second to mach step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{y a r d}{s e c o n d}) = x (m a c h)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(\frac{m e t e r}{s e c o n d})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{y a r d}{s e c o n d}) = 0.9144 (\frac{m e t e r}{s e c o n d}) = 0.9144 (\frac{m}{s})

Right side: 1.0 (m a c h) = 331.0 (\frac{m e t e r}{s e c o n d}) = 331.0 (\frac{m}{s})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{y a r d}{s e c o n d}) = x (m a c h)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 0.9144 \times (\frac{m e t e r}{s e c o n d}) = x \times 331.0 \times (\frac{m e t e r}{s e c o n d})

Or

1.0 \cdot 0.9144 \cdot (\frac{m}{s}) = x \cdot 331.0 \cdot (\frac{m}{s})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 0.9144 \cdot (\frac{m}{s}) = x \times 331.0 \times (\frac{m}{s})

Conversion Equation

0.9144 = x \times 331.0

Switch sides

x \times 331.0 = 0.9144

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{331.0})

x \times 331.0 \times \frac{1.0}{331.0} = 0.9144 \times \frac{1.0}{331.0}

Cancel

x \times 331.0 \times \frac{1.0}{331.0} = 0.9144 \times \frac{1.0}{331.0}

Simplify

x = \frac{0.9144}{331.0}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0027625378 \approx 2.7625 \times 10^{- 3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{y a r d}{s e c o n d}) \approx 2.7625 \times 10^{- 3} (m a c h)
