Converting from Mile per second (mps) to Hours per mile (hpm)

What is Mile per second (mps)

Mile per second (mps) is a unit of speed that represents the distance traveled in miles in one second. It is commonly used in scientific and engineering fields where high-speed measurements are required.

What is Hours per mile (hpm)

Hours per mile (hpm) is the reciprocal of mile per second, representing the time taken to travel one mile. It is often used in applications such as average speed calculations and pace conversion for running or cycling.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion between mps and hpm can be done using the following formulas:

• To convert from mps to hpm: hpm=mps1​×3600

• To convert from hpm to mps: mps=hpm1​×3600

Examples

1. Converting 9 mps to hpm:

hpm=91​×3600=0.0000308642 hpm

2. Converting 6 hpm to mps:

mps=61​×3600=0.0002777778 mps

3. Converting 7 mps to hpm:

hpm=71​×3600=0.00003968254 hpm

By using these conversion formulas, you can easily switch between mile per second and hour per mile to suit your specific needs.
