10 Meters per Second to Kilometers per Hour
Result
10 m/s = 36 km/h
10 m/s = 36 km/h
How to Convert meters per second to kilometers per hour
To convert meters per second to kilometers per hour, multiply the value by the conversion factor:
Reverse: 36 kilometers per hour = 10 meters per second
Reverse: 36 kilometers per hour = 10 meters per second
kilometers per hour to meters per second converterAbout These Units
meters per second (m/s)
Meters per second (m/s) is the scientific standard for velocity. It is an SI derived unit. It is the language of physics, from ballistics to aerodynamics. The speed of light itself is defined exactly in these units (299,792,458 m/s). It is rarely used for road speeds but is standard for wind speed in meteorology outside the US.
A typical human walking speed is about 1.4 m/s.
Commonly used in: Physics calculations, Wind speed (Scientific), Projectile motion, Sprinter speeds, Industrial machinery.
kilometers per hour (km/h)
Kilometers per hour (km/h) is the standard unit for speed limits and car speedometers in almost every country except the US and UK. It gained dominance as the metric system spread in the 20th century. Even in the UK, which uses mph on signs, car speedometers must also show km/h.
Highway speed limits are often 100-130 km/h.
Commonly used in: Speed limits (Global), Car speedometers, High-speed trains, Bicycle computers, Weather reports (some countries).
