Conversion Definitions
The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between kilometers per hour and feet per second.
What is kilometers per hour (km/h)?
Kilometers per hour is a unit of Speed or Velocity in the Metric System. It measures the number of kilometers traveled in an hour. The symbol for kilometers per hour is km/h and the International spelling for this unit is kilometres per hour. There are 1.09728 km/h in ft/s.
What is feet per second (ft/s)?
Feet per second is a unit of Speed or Velocity in both US Customary Units as well as the Imperial System. It measures the number of feet traveled in a second. The symbol for feet per second is ft/s. There are 0.91134442 ft/s in km/h.
Conversion Formula
Let's take a closer look at the conversion formula so that you can do these conversions yourself with a calculator or with an old-fashioned pencil and paper.
The formula to convert from km/h to ft/s is:
ft/s = km/h ÷ 1.09728
Conversion Example
Next, let's look at an example showing the work and calculations that are involved in converting from kilometers per hour to feet per second (km/h to ft/s).
Kilometers per hour to Feet per second Conversion Example
Task: Convert 75 kilometers per hour to feet per second (show work) Formula: km/h ÷ 1.09728 = ft/s Calculations: 75 km/h ÷ 1.09728 = 68.35083115 ft/s Result: 75 km/h is equal to 68.35083115 ft/s
