mph to m/s Converter
Meters per Second (m/s):
Usage Instructions:
Objective: Convert speed from miles per hour to meters per second.
Steps:
- Enter Speed: Input the speed in miles per hour (mph).
- Click "Convert to m/s": Press the button to convert the speed to meters per second.
- View Result: The converted speed in meters per second will be displayed below.
To convert miles per hour (mph) to meters per second (m/s), you can use the following conversion factor:
1 mile per hour = 0.44704 meters per second
Conversion Formula
m/s = mph × 0.44704
Example Conversions
Here are some examples to illustrate the conversion:
| Miles per Hour (mph) | Formula | Meters per Second (m/s) |
|---|---|---|
| 10 mph | 10 × 0.44704 | 4.47 m/s |
| 20 mph | 20 × 0.44704 | 8.94 m/s |
| 30 mph | 30 × 0.44704 | 13.41 m/s |
| 40 mph | 40 × 0.44704 | 17.88 m/s |
| 60 mph | 60 × 0.44704 | 26.82 m/s |
How to Convert mph to m/s
- Identify the Value in mph: For example, 50 mph.
- Apply the Conversion Formula:
- Multiply the number of miles per hour by 0.44704.
- For 50 mph:
- Calculation: 50 × 0.44704 = 22.35 m/s
Practical Uses
- Speed Measurement: Useful for converting speeds between different units of measurement, especially in scientific and engineering contexts.
- Velocity Analysis: Helps in understanding and comparing velocities in different measurement systems.
Summary
To convert miles per hour (mph) to meters per second (m/s), multiply the number of miles per hour by 0.44704. For example, 30 mph is approximately 13.41 m/s, and 60 mph is about 26.82 m/s. This conversion is useful for translating speeds between the imperial and metric systems.
