Conversion Definitions
The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between kilometers per second and meters per hour.
What is kilometers per second (km/s)?
Kilometers per second is a unit of Speed or Velocity in the Metric System. It measures the number of kilometers traveled in a second. The symbol for kilometers per second is km/s and the International spelling for this unit is kilometres per second. There are 0.0000002778 km/s in m/h.
What is meters per hour (m/h)?
Meters per hour is a unit of Speed or Velocity in the Metric System. It measures the number of meters traveled in an hour. The symbol for meters per hour is m/h and the International spelling for this unit is metres per hour. There are 3,600,000 m/h in km/s.
Conversion Formula
Let's take a closer look at the conversion formula so that you can do these conversions yourself with a calculator or with an old-fashioned pencil and paper.
The formula to convert from km/s to m/h is:
m/h = km/s x 3,600,000
Conversion Example
Next, let's look at an example showing the work and calculations that are involved in converting from kilometers per second to meters per hour (km/s to m/h).
Kilometers per second to Meters per hour Conversion Example
Task: Convert 25 kilometers per second to meters per hour (show work)Formula:km/s x 3,600,000 = m/hCalculations:25 km/s x 3,600,000 = 90,000,000 m/hResult:25 km/s is equal to 90,000,000 m/h
