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 285 kilometers per hour into feet per second we have to multiply 285 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

285 km/h → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 285 km/h × 0.91134441528215 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 259.73315835541 ft/s

The final result is:

285 km/h → 259.73315835541 ft/s

We conclude that 285 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 259.73315835541 feet per second:

285 kilometers per hour = 259.73315835541 feet per second
