Meters per second to Kilometers per hour Conversion

How to convert meters per second to kilometers per hour

1 meter per second is equal to 3.6 kilometers per hour:

1 m/s = 3.6 km/h

When a speed V in meters per second is multiplied by 3.6, it gives speed in kilometers per hour.

V_km/h = V_m/s × 3.6

Example

To convert 5 meters per second into kilometers per hour, it is multiplied by 3.6:

(5 m/s) × 3.6 = 18 km/h

Meters per second

The meters per second is an SI unit of speed (scalar quantity) and velocity (vector quantity). It is equal to the distance traveled a body in meters in one second. The SI unit symbols are m/s, m·s⁻¹, or m s⁻¹, and abbreviated as mps.

Kilometers per hour
