The Meters per Second to km/h Converter converts speed between meters per second (m/s) and kilometers per hour (km/h) instantly. Meters per second is the SI unit for speed, while km/h is common for road vehicles and weather reports. Related: Speed Converter and Speed Calculator.

Conversion Formula

$$\text{km/h} = \text{m/s} \times 3.6$$

$$\text{m/s} = \frac{\text{km/h}}{3.6}$$

Since $1\,\text{km} = 1{,}000\,\text{m}$ and $1\,\text{h} = 3{,}600\,\text{s}$, multiplying m/s by $3{,}600 \div 1{,}000 = 3.6$ gives km/h.

Common Speed Conversions

From meters per second you can also derive:

$$\text{mph} = \text{m/s} \times 2.23694$$

$$\text{knots} = \text{m/s} \times 1.94384$$

$$\text{ft/s} = \text{m/s} \times 3.28084$$
