Conversion formula

The conversion factor from feet per second to kilometers per hour is 1.0972799999991, which means that 1 foot per second is equal to 1.0972799999991 kilometers per hour:

1 ft/s = 1.0972799999991 km/h

To convert 639 feet per second into kilometers per hour we have to multiply 639 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from feet per second to kilometers per hour. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft/s → 1.0972799999991 km/h

639 ft/s → V_(km/h)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in kilometers per hour:

V_(km/h) = 639 ft/s × 1.0972799999991 km/h

V_(km/h) = 701.16191999944 km/h

The final result is:

639 ft/s → 701.16191999944 km/h

We conclude that 639 feet per second is equivalent to 701.16191999944 kilometers per hour:
