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 5.3 kilometers per hour into feet per second we have to multiply 5.3 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

5.3 km/h → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 5.3 km/h × 0.91134441528215 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4.8301254009954 ft/s

The final result is:

5.3 km/h → 4.8301254009954 ft/s

We conclude that 5.3 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 4.8301254009954 feet per second:

5.3 kilometers per hour = 4.8301254009954 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 0.20703396226399 × 5.3 kilometers per hour.

Another way is saying that 5.3 kilometers per hour is equal to 1 ÷ 0.20703396226399 feet per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five point three kilometers per hour is approximately four point eight three feet per second:

5.3 km/h ≅ 4.83 ft/s

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