Converting from Kilometer per hour (km/h) to Meter per second (m/s)

What is Kilometer per hour (km/h)

Kilometer per hour (km/h) is a unit of speed that expresses the number of kilometers traveled in one hour. It is commonly used in countries that use the metric system for measuring distances.

What is Meter per second (m/s)

Meter per second (m/s) is a unit of speed that expresses the number of meters traveled in one second. It is often used in scientific calculations and engineering applications.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from kilometers per hour (km/h) to meters per second (m/s), you can use the following formula:

m/s=3600km/h×1000​

To convert from meters per second (m/s) to kilometers per hour (km/h), you can use the following formula:

km/h=1000m/s×3600​

Examples

1. Converting 13 km/h to m/s:

13×36001000​=3.611111 m/s

2. Converting 5 m/s to km/h:

5×10003600​=18 km/h

3. Converting 10 km/h to m/s:

10×36001000​=2.777778 m/s
