How to convert mph to meters per second

To convert miles per hour to meters per second, multiply by 0.44704. For example, 60 mph × 0.44704 = 26.822 m/s. Going the other way, multiply m/s by 2.23694 to get mph.

To convert mph to km/h, multiply by 1.60934. So 60 mph × 1.60934 = 96.561 km/h.

1 mph = 0.44704 m/s = 1.60934 km/h. This conversion is commonly needed in physics, sports science, and engineering when working between imperial and metric speed units.
