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 300 kilometers per hour into meters per second we have to multiply 300 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

300 km/h → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 300 km/h × 0.277777777778 m/s

V_(m/s) = 83.3333333334 m/s

The final result is:

300 km/h → 83.3333333334 m/s

We conclude that 300 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 83.3333333334 meters per second:

300 kilometers per hour = 83.3333333334 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 0.01199999999999 × 300 kilometers per hour.

Another way is saying that 300 kilometers per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.01199999999999 meters per second.

Approximate result

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

300 km/h ≅ 83.333 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero one two times three hundred kilometers per hour.
