How to calculate

Convert kilometres per hour to mph and metres per second.

1 mph = 1.609344 km/h; 1 m/s = 3.6 km/h.

Worked example

Speed: 100; Input unit: 1.

MPH: 62.14 mph; m/s: 27.78 m/s; KM/h: 100 km/h.

Assumptions and limits

Magnitude of speed; enter a nonnegative value.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert km/h to m/s?

Divide by 3.6 because a kilometre is 1,000 metres and an hour is 3,600 seconds.

Does this determine travel time?

No. Travel time also needs a distance and an assumption about speed along the route.
