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 40.7 kilometers per hour into feet per second we have to multiply 40.7 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

40.7 km/h → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 40.7 km/h × 0.91134441528215 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 37.091717701984 ft/s

The final result is:

40.7 km/h → 37.091717701984 ft/s

We conclude that 40.7 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 37.091717701984 feet per second:

40.7 kilometers per hour = 37.091717701984 feet per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot per second is equal to 0.026960196560175 × 40.7 kilometers per hour.

Another way is saying that 40.7 kilometers per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.026960196560175 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that forty point seven kilometers per hour is approximately thirty-seven point zero nine two feet per second:

40.7 km/h ≅ 37.092 ft/s

An alternative is also that one foot per second is approximately zero point zero two seven times forty point seven kilometers per hour.
