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 3418 kilometers per hour into meters per second we have to multiply 3418 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

3418 km/h → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 3418 km/h × 0.277777777778 m/s

V_(m/s) = 949.4444444452 m/s

The final result is:

3418 km/h → 949.4444444452 m/s

We conclude that 3418 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 949.4444444452 meters per second:

3418 kilometers per hour = 949.4444444452 meters per second

Alternative conversion
