Conversion formula

The conversion factor from miles per hour to meters per second is 0.44704, which means that 1 mile per hour is equal to 0.44704 meters per second:

1 mph = 0.44704 m/s

To convert 249 miles per hour into meters per second we have to multiply 249 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from miles per hour to meters per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 mph → 0.44704 m/s

249 mph → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 249 mph × 0.44704 m/s

V_(m/s) = 111.31296 m/s

The final result is:

249 mph → 111.31296 m/s

We conclude that 249 miles per hour is equivalent to 111.31296 meters per second:

249 miles per hour = 111.31296 meters per second
