Conversion formula

The conversion factor from kilometers per hour to meters per second is 0.277777777778, which means that 1 kilometer per hour is equal to 0.277777777778 meters per second:

1 km/h = 0.277777777778 m/s

To convert 228 kilometers per hour into meters per second we have to multiply 228 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from kilometers per hour to meters per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 km/h → 0.277777777778 m/s

228 km/h → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 228 km/h × 0.277777777778 m/s

V_(m/s) = 63.333333333384 m/s

The final result is:

228 km/h → 63.333333333384 m/s

We conclude that 228 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 63.333333333384 meters per second:

228 kilometers per hour = 63.333333333384 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 0.015789473684198 × 228 kilometers per hour.

Another way is saying that 228 kilometers per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.015789473684198 meters per second.

Approximate result

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

228 km/h ≅ 63.333 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero one six times two hundred twenty-eight kilometers per hour.
