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 2420 kilometers per hour into meters per second we have to multiply 2420 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

2420 km/h → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 2420 km/h × 0.277777777778 m/s

V_(m/s) = 672.22222222276 m/s

The final result is:

2420 km/h → 672.22222222276 m/s

We conclude that 2420 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 672.22222222276 meters per second:

2420 kilometers per hour = 672.22222222276 meters per second

Alternative conversion
