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 170 kilometers per hour into feet per second we have to multiply 170 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

170 km/h → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 170 km/h × 0.91134441528215 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 154.92855059797 ft/s

The final result is:

170 km/h → 154.92855059797 ft/s

We conclude that 170 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 154.92855059797 feet per second:
