How to Convert Meters per Second to Kilometers per Hour (m/s to km/h)?

The conversion from meters per second to kilometers per hour is simple: one meter per second equals 3.6 kilometers per hour. Therefore, to perform the conversion, simply multiply the number of meters per second by 3.6.

Formula

This formula represents the conversion of meters per second to kilometers per hour by multiplying the value in meters per second by 3.6.
km/h=m/s×3.6\text{km/h} = \text{m/s} \times 3.6

Conversion Examples: Meters per Second to Kilometers per Hour

With these steps, you can easily convert meters per second to kilometers per hour without needing a calculator. Below, we provide practical examples to better understand the procedure.

Example 1

Convert 8 meters per second to kilometers per hour.

This example shows how to convert 8 meters per second to kilometers per hour by multiplying 8 by 3.6, resulting in 28.8 kilometers per hour.
km/h=8×3.6=28.8km/h\text{km/h} = 8 \times 3.6 = 28.8\,\text{km/h}

Result: 8 meters per second is equal to 28.8 kilometers per hour.

Example 2

Convert 15 meters per second to kilometers per hour.

This example shows how to convert 15 meters per second to kilometers per hour by multiplying 15 by 3.6, resulting in 54 kilometers per hour.
km/h=15×3.6=54km/h\text{km/h} = 15 \times 3.6 = 54\,\text{km/h}

Result: 15 meters per second is equal to 54 kilometers per hour.
