Q: How do I convert 60 km/hr to m/s?
A: Here is the definitive method of unit conversion which is not difficult to learn:
TREAT UNITS AS PARTS OF AN EQUATION
Here is an example given 3 km/hr write an equation:
3 km/hr = 3 km/hr X 1000 meter/1 kilometer
Because 1000m/1 km is the same as X1, you have free choice of your unit conversion. Sometimes you need 1000 m / 1 km and other times you need 1 km/ 1000m in order to cancel unwanted units.
NOW SIMPLIFY
3 km/hr = 3 X 1000 meter/hr [notice that I cancelled symbols from numerator and denominator in the usual algebraic way]
Now 60 km/hr
60 km/hr = 60 km/hr X 1000 m/km X 1 hr / 60 min X 1 min / 60 second =
60 X 1000 X 1 X 1 / ( 60 X 60 ) and the units cancel in the usual way to m/s =
60000 / 3600 m/s = 16.67 m/s
To convert the magnitude from km/hr to m/s there is simple formula i.e 5/18*magnitude of km/hr.
This formula 's derivation-
To convert a value from km/hr to m/s
1km =1000m
1 hr=60mins*60secs
1hr=3600secs.
Now km/hr=1000m/3600s
1km/hr=10 m/36s
1km/hr=5m/18s.
Now,coming to your question -
=5 /18*60
=5*10/3
=16.66 or 16.67 m/s.
Hope this would clear your concept.
As we know 1Km/Hr = 1000m/Hr and now 1 hour=3600 sec.
So now 1km/Hr=1000/3600 m/s = 5/18 m/s
So 60 km/Hr=60*5/18 m/s
Therefore 60Km/Hr=16.66666666666667 m/s
And if we want to convert m/s to Km/Hr then we have to multiply with the fraction 18/5
For example:- Convert 1000m/s to Km/Hr
1000*18/5=3600 K/Hr.
Answer:
60 km/h = 16.667m/s
Explanation:
60/3.6 = 16.667
