16.8 meters per second in kilometers per hour (16.8 m/s to km/h)

Conversion formula

The conversion factor from meters per second to kilometers per hour is 3.5999999999971, which means that 1 meter per second is equal to 3.5999999999971 kilometers per hour:

1 m/s = 3.5999999999971 km/h

To convert 16.8 meters per second into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 16.8 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from meters per second to kilometers per hour. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 m/s → 3.5999999999971 km/h

16.8 m/s → V_(km/h)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in kilometers per hour:

V_(km/h) = 16.8 m/s × 3.5999999999971 km/h

V_(km/h) = 60.479999999952 km/h

The final result is:

16.8 m/s → 60.479999999952 km/h

We conclude that 16.8 meters per second is equivalent to 60.479999999952 kilometers per hour:

16.8 meters per second = 60.479999999952 kilometers per hour

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 kilometer per hour is equal to 0.016534391534405 × 16.8 meters per second.

Another way is saying that 16.8 meters per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.016534391534405 kilometers per hour.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that sixteen point eight meters per second is approximately sixty point four eight kilometers per hour:

16.8 m/s ≅ 60.48 km/h

An alternative is also that one kilometer per hour is approximately zero point zero one seven times sixteen point eight meters per second.

Conversion units

The units involved in this conversion are meters per second and kilometers per hour. This is how they are defined:

Meter per second

Metre per second (American English: meter per second) is an SI derived unit of both speed (scalar) and velocity (vector quantity which specifies both magnitude and a specific direction), defined by distance in metres divided by time in seconds. The SI unit symbols are m·s−1, m s−1 or m/s sometimes (unofficially) abbreviated as "mps". Where metres per second are several orders of magnitude too slow to be convenient, such as in astronomical measurements, velocities may be given in kilometres per second, where 1 km/s is 1000 metres per second, sometimes unofficially abbreviated as "kps".

Kilometer per hour

The kilometre per hour (American English: kilometer per hour) is a unit of speed, expressing the number of kilometres travelled in one hour. The unit symbol is km/h. Worldwide, it is the most commonly used unit of speed on road signs and car speedometers. Although the metre was formally defined in 1799, the term "kilometres per hour" did not come into immediate use – the myriametre (10,000 metres) and myriametre per hour were preferred to kilometres and kilometres per hour.
