Conversion formula

The conversion factor from feet per second to kilometers per hour is 1.0972799999991, which means that 1 foot per second is equal to 1.0972799999991 kilometers per hour:

1 ft/s = 1.0972799999991 km/h

To convert 238 feet per second into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 238 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from feet per second to kilometers per hour. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft/s → 1.0972799999991 km/h

238 ft/s → V_(km/h)

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

V_(km/h) = 238 ft/s × 1.0972799999991 km/h

V_(km/h) = 261.15263999979 km/h

The final result is:

238 ft/s → 261.15263999979 km/h

We conclude that 238 feet per second is equivalent to 261.15263999979 kilometers per hour:
