You don't. "Meters per second squared" is acceleration. "Kilometers per hour" is speed.
They're used to measure different things, their physical dimensions are different, and they
can't be converted into one another.
15/07/2010 - I agree. However, if you want to understand how fast acceleration in m/s/s is in km/h, you can do this exercise:
If you fall off the top of a building, how fast will you be travelling after 3 seconds?
We know that acceleration is 9.8m/s/s. If we just look at the velocity after 1 second, this is 9.8m/s which translates into 35.28km/hr (9.8*60(seconds)*60(minutes)).
After the 2nd second, you have accelerated another 9.8m/s and are now travelling ~75km/hr.
After the 3rd second, you are now travelling at ~110km/hr. This is your speed (velocity).
Therefore, you could say that you are accelerating at 35.28km/h/s.
When you hear of supercars accelerating to 100km/h in 3 seconds, this is comparable with the acceleration when falling off a building!!
15/07/10 -- And it could be described as . . . . . . . . wait for it . . . . . . . . an acceleration of "one G" .
To convert meters to feet, multiply by 3.281. It does not matter about the "per second squared" since that is present in both sides.
1 metre per second squared = 12960 kilometres per hour squared
1,000 meters per second squared (m/s2) is approximately 2,237 mph/s
-- take the number of meters per second-- divide it by 1,000-- the result is the number of kilometers per second
Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.
You need to multiply by the proper conversion factor. In this case, you multiply the number of kilometers/second2 X 1000 meters/kilometer.
To convert meters to feet, multiply by 3.281. It does not matter about the "per second squared" since that is present in both sides.
Multiply by time
1 metre per second squared = 12960 kilometres per hour squared
1,000 meters per second squared (m/s2) is approximately 2,237 mph/s
-- take the number of meters per second-- divide it by 1,000-- the result is the number of kilometers per second
To convert 4.4 miles per hour per second to meters per second squared, first convert 4.4 miles to meters (1 mile = 1609.34 meters) and 1 hour to seconds (1 hour = 3600 seconds). Then divide the speed in meters per second by the time in seconds squared to get the acceleration in meters per second squared.
Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.
To convert 1.9 miles per hour per second to meters per second squared, you first need to convert miles to meters and hours to seconds. 1 mile is approximately 1609.34 meters and 1 hour is 3600 seconds. Convert the speed to meters per second and then divide by time squared to get the acceleration in meters per second squared.
FALSE
TRUE
By using this formula - meters per second x 3.6 = km/h
