  2. Miles per hour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miles_per_hour

    0.44704. Miles per hour (mph, m.p.h., MPH, or mi/h) is a British imperial and United States customary unit of speed expressing the number of miles travelled in one hour. It is used in the United Kingdom, the United States, and a number of smaller countries, most of which are UK or US territories, or have close historical ties with the UK or US.

  3. Metre per hour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metre_per_hour

    Metre per hour (American spelling: meter per hour) is a metric unit of both speed and velocity (Vector (geometry)). Its symbol is m/h or m·h −1 (not to be confused with the imperial unit symbol mph). By definition, an object travelling at a speed of 1 m/h for an hour would move 1 metre.

  4. Metre per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metre_per_second

    3.2808. The metre per second is the unit of both speed (a scalar quantity) and velocity (a vector quantity, which has direction and magnitude) in the International System of Units (SI), equal to the speed of a body covering a distance of one metre in a time of one second. According to the definition of metre, [1] 1 m/s is exactly of the speed ...

  5. Conversion of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units

    Because of the identity property of multiplication, multiplying any quantity (physical or not) by the dimensionless 1 does not change that quantity. [5] Once this and the conversion factor for seconds per hour have been multiplied by the original fraction to cancel out the units mile and hour, 10 miles per hour converts to 4.4704 metres per second.

  6. Kilometres per hour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilometres_per_hour

    Speed limit sign in the Republic of Ireland, using "km/h.". The SI representations, classified as symbols, are "km/h", "km h −1" and "km·h −1".Several other abbreviations of "kilometres per hour" have been used since the term was introduced and many are still in use today; for example, dictionaries list "kph", [3] [4] [5] "kmph" and "km/hr" [6] as English abbreviations.

    The game was also the first to be broadcast on the then-new Big Ten Network. It began with a strong first half for Appalachian State, who held a 28–17 lead at the end of the half. Michigan regained the lead at 32–31 in the fourth quarter, but Appalachian State took the lead for a second time on a short field goal with 26 seconds left.

    Wind speed conversion factors. Meteorological data includes wind speeds which may be expressed as statute miles per hour, knots, or meters per second. Here are the conversion factors for those various expressions of wind speed: 1 m/s = 2.237 statute mile/h = 1.944 knots. 1 knot = 1.151 statute mile/h = 0.514 m/s.

  9. Mach number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach_number

    The Mach number (M or Ma), often only Mach, (/ mɑːk /; German: [max]) is a dimensionless quantity in fluid dynamics representing the ratio of flow velocity past a boundary to the local speed of sound. [1][2] It is named after the Austrian physicist and philosopher Ernst Mach. where: M is the local Mach number, u is the local flow velocity ...
