Meters Per Second to Kilometers Per Hour Converter
How to convert meters per second to kilometers per hour
kilometers per hour = meters per second × 3.6
To convert meters per second to kilometers per hour, multiply the number of meters per second by 3.6.
1 m/s = 3.6 km/h
Examples
- 10 m/s × 3.6 = 36 km/h
- 1 m/s × 3.6 = 3.6 km/h
Good to know
The conversion factor is exactly 3.6: multiply meters per second by 3.6 to get km/h, and divide km/h by 3.6 to get meters per second.

Unit definitions
- Meter per second (m/s)
- The meter per second is the SI unit of speed: one meter traveled in one second. It is the standard unit in science and is used for wind speed in many countries.
- Kilometer per hour (km/h)
- A kilometer per hour is a speed of one kilometer traveled in one hour, exactly 1/3.6 meters per second. It is the unit on road signs and speedometers in most countries.
