How do you convert kph to meters per second?

Answer 1

1 kph = 1000 metres per hour

There are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour, so 60 * 60 = 3600 seconds in an hour.

So, to convert, multiply by 1000 and divide by 3600.

e.g.

54 kph = 54,000 metres per hour

divide by 3600, which gives 15 metres per second
