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 5438 kilometers per hour into feet per second we have to multiply 5438 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

5438 km/h → V_(ft/s)

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

V_(ft/s) = 5438 km/h × 0.91134441528215 ft/s

V_(ft/s) = 4955.8909303043 ft/s

The final result is:

5438 km/h → 4955.8909303043 ft/s

We conclude that 5438 kilometers per hour is equivalent to 4955.8909303043 feet per second:
