What is the Formula to convert Kilometer/second to Mile/hour?

The formula to convert given speed from Kilometer/second to Mile/hour is:

Speed(Mile/hour) = Speed(Kilometer/second) × 2.2369362921 / 0.001

Substitute the given value of speed in kilometer/second, i.e., Speed(Kilometer/second) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the speed in mile/hour, i.e., Speed(Mile/hour).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

A spacecraft travels at a speed of 8 kilometers per second.
Convert this speed from kilometers per second to Mile/hour.

Answer:

Given:

The speed in kilometer/second is:

Speed(Kilometer/second) = 8

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from kilometer/second to mile/hour is:

Speed(Mile/hour) = Speed(Kilometer/second) × 2.2369362921 / 0.001

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Speed(Kilometer/second) = 8 in the above formula.

Speed(Mile/hour) = 8 × 2.2369362921 / 0.001

Speed(Mile/hour) = 17895.4903

Final Answer:

Therefore, 8 km/s is equal to 17895.4903 mi/h.

The speed is 17895.4903 mi/h, in mile/hour.

2

A meteor enters the Earth's atmosphere at 15 kilometers per second.
Convert this speed from kilometers per second to Mile/hour.

Answer:

Given:

The speed in kilometer/second is:

Speed(Kilometer/second) = 15

Formula:

The formula to convert speed from kilometer/second to mile/hour is:

Speed(Mile/hour) = Speed(Kilometer/second) × 2.2369362921 / 0.001

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Speed(Kilometer/second) = 15 in the above formula.

Speed(Mile/hour) = 15 × 2.2369362921 / 0.001

Speed(Mile/hour) = 33554.0444

Final Answer:

Therefore, 15 km/s is equal to 33554.0444 mi/h.

The speed is 33554.0444 mi/h, in mile/hour.

Kilometer/second

The kilometer per second (km/s) is a unit of speed that represents how many kilometers an object travels in one second. This unit is often used in astronomy and space science to describe the velocities of celestial bodies and spacecraft, as these speeds are far beyond those encountered in everyday life.

Mile/hour

The mile per hour (mph) is a unit of speed commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom to measure the speed of vehicles. It indicates the number of miles traveled in one hour. This unit is prevalent in transportation and is used on road signs and vehicle speedometers in countries where the imperial system is used.
