About converting Meter per Sec to Mile per Hour

Converting Meter per Sec to Mile per Hour is a common speed conversion. One meter per sec (m/s) equals 2.23694 mile per hour (mph). Meters per second is the SI unit for speed, used in physics and engineering.

This conversion is commonly needed for sailing and marine navigation, physics and engineering calculations, driving and speed limit compliance. Miles per hour are used for speed limits and weather in the US and UK.

To put meter per sec in perspective: world-record 100m sprint (about 10.4 m/s). In mile per hour, common references include a cheetah's top speed (about 70 mph).

Did you know?

Meters per second is the SI derived unit for speed, calculated simply as distance in meters divided by time in seconds — the standard unit in physics equations worldwide.

Meter per Sec (m/s)
  • a brisk walk (about 1.4 m/s)
  • world-record 100m sprint (about 10.4 m/s)
  • speed of sound at sea level (343 m/s)
Mile per Hour (mph)
  • a bicycle ride (about 15 mph)
  • a US highway speed limit (65–75 mph)
  • a cheetah's top speed (about 70 mph)
Did you know?

Even though the UK uses miles for road speed limits, it uses kilometers for most other measurements — a split that dates back to an incomplete 1965 metrication effort.
