Conversion formula

The conversion factor from miles per hour to meters per second is 0.44704, which means that 1 mile per hour is equal to 0.44704 meters per second:

1 mph = 0.44704 m/s

To convert 108 miles per hour into meters per second we have to multiply 108 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from miles per hour to meters per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 mph → 0.44704 m/s

108 mph → V_(m/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:

V_(m/s) = 108 mph × 0.44704 m/s

V_(m/s) = 48.28032 m/s

The final result is:

108 mph → 48.28032 m/s

We conclude that 108 miles per hour is equivalent to 48.28032 meters per second:

108 miles per hour = 48.28032 meters per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter per second is equal to 0.020712373074578 × 108 miles per hour.

Another way is saying that 108 miles per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.020712373074578 meters per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred eight miles per hour is approximately forty-eight point two eight meters per second:

108 mph ≅ 48.28 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero two one times one hundred eight miles per hour.
