Conversion formula

The conversion factor from miles per hour to meters per second is 0.44704, which means that 1 mile per hour is equal to 0.44704 meters per second:

1 mph = 0.44704 m/s

To convert 968 miles per hour into meters per second we have to multiply 968 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from miles per hour to meters per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 mph → 0.44704 m/s

968 mph → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 968 mph × 0.44704 m/s

V_(m/s) = 432.73472 m/s

The final result is:

968 mph → 432.73472 m/s

We conclude that 968 miles per hour is equivalent to 432.73472 meters per second:

968 miles per hour = 432.73472 meters per second
