What does the unit meter per minute represent?

Meter per minute is a unit of speed showing how many meters are traveled in one minute, commonly used in engineering and manufacturing settings.

What is the second cosmic velocity?

The second cosmic velocity, also called escape velocity, is the minimum speed needed for an object to leave a celestial body's gravity without further propulsion.

Why are the converted values so small?

Because typical linear speeds measured in meter/minutes are extremely slow relative to cosmic escape velocities, the converted values are tiny decimal fractions.
