Converting from Mile per Hour per Second (mph/s) to Kilometer per Second Squared (km/s²) in Acceleration

What is Mile per Hour per Second (mph/s)

mph/s is a unit of acceleration commonly used in the imperial system. It represents the change in speed of an object traveling at a speed of one mile per hour per second.

What is Kilometer per Second Squared (km/s²)

km/s2 is a unit of acceleration in the metric system. It indicates the change in velocity of an object moving at a speed of one kilometer per second, every second.
