What is the formula to convert from Kilometer/hour to Meter/second?

The formula to convert speed value from the unit of Kilometer/hour to the unit of Meter/second is:

Speed_{(Meter/second)} = Speed_{(Kilometer/hour)} / 3.6

Kilometer/hour unit in Speed

Kilometer per hour (km/h or kph) is a metric unit of speed, representing the distance traveled in kilometers in one hour. It is commonly used in road transportation and weather reporting to measure the speed of vehicles and wind.

Meter/second unit in Speed

Meter per second (m/s) is the SI unit of speed, representing the distance traveled in meters in one second. It is widely used in physics and engineering to measure velocities in various contexts such as motion and fluid flow.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about "Kilometer/hour ➜ Meter/second" Conversion

1. What is the conversion formula from Kilometer/hour to Meter/second?

The formula to convert Kilometer/hour to Meter/second in Speed is:

Kilometer/hour / 3.6

2. How do I convert from Kilometer/hour to Meter/second given a value in Kilometer/hour units?

To convert Speed from Kilometer/hour to Meter/second, you can use the following formula:

Kilometer/hour / 3.6

For example, if you have a value in Kilometer/hour, you substitute that value in place of Kilometer/hour in the above formula, and solve the mathematical expression to get the equivalent value in Meter/second.
