Conversion formula

The conversion factor from kilometers per hour to feet per second is 0.91134441528215, which means that 1 kilometer per hour is equal to 0.91134441528215 feet per second:

1 km/h = 0.91134441528215 ft/s

To convert 1588 kilometers per hour into feet per second we have to multiply 1588 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from kilometers per hour to feet per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 km/h → 0.91134441528215 ft/s

1588 km/h → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 1588 km/h × 0.91134441528215 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 1447.2149314681 ft/s

The final result is:

1588 km/h → 1447.2149314681 ft/s

We conclude that 1588 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 1447.2149314681 feet per second:
