kph to mps – kilometers per hour to meters per second – online

Speed ​​in kilometers per hour (kph):

Result in meters per second (mps):

mps to kph

How to convert speed from kilometers per hour to speed in meters per second?

1 kph ≈ 0.278 mps.

Meters per second (US) = mps = metres per second (UK) = m/s = m s^-1 = m•s^-1 

Kilometers per hour (US) = kph = kilometres per hour (UK) = km/h = km h^-1 = km•h^-1

Speed ​​in meters per second is equal to speed in kilometers per hour divided by 3.6.

Formulas:

meters per second = kilometers per hour / 3.6

mps = mph / 3.6

υ_mps =υ_kph / 3.6

υ_mps – speed in meters per second;

υ_kph – speed in kilometers per hour.

For example:

Convert speed 36 kph to mps.

Solution: υ_mps = υ_kph / 3.6 = 36 / 3.6 = 10 mps. Answer: 36 kph= 10 mps.

Convert speed 60 kph to mps.

Solution: mps = kph / 3.6 = 60 / 3.6 = 16.6 mps. Answer: 60 kph = 16.6 mps

Convert speed 72 kph to mps.

Solution: mps = kph / 3.6 =  72 / 3.6 = 20 mps. Answer: 72 kph = 20 mps
