Meter per second
Meter per second is the standard unit of speed in the International System of Units (SI). It is also known as metre per second (UK).
How to convert Meter per hour to Meter per second
$$\text{Speed}_{\text{ms⁻¹}} = \frac{\text{Speed}_{\text{mh⁻¹}}}{3600}$$
Examples
Example 1
Convert $20.0\ \text{mh⁻¹}$ to $\text{ms⁻¹}$.
$$\text{Speed}_{\text{ms⁻¹}} = \frac{20.0}{3600}$$
$$\text{Speed}_{\text{ms⁻¹}} = 0.005556$$
$$\therefore \ 20.0\ \text{mh⁻¹} = 0.005556 \ \text{ms⁻¹}$$
Example 2
Convert $65.0\ \text{mh⁻¹}$ to $\text{ms⁻¹}$.
$$\text{Speed}_{\text{ms⁻¹}} = \frac{65.0}{3600}$$
$$\text{Speed}_{\text{ms⁻¹}} = 0.018056$$
$$\therefore \ 65.0\ \text{mh⁻¹} = 0.018056 \ \text{ms⁻¹}$$
Example 3
Convert $120.0\ \text{mh⁻¹}$ to $\text{ms⁻¹}$.
$$\text{Speed}_{\text{ms⁻¹}} = \frac{120.0}{3600}$$
$$\text{Speed}_{\text{ms⁻¹}} = 0.033333$$
$$\therefore \ 120.0\ \text{mh⁻¹} = 0.033333 \ \text{ms⁻¹}$$
Example 4
Convert $135.0\ \text{mh⁻¹}$ to $\text{ms⁻¹}$.
$$\text{Speed}_{\text{ms⁻¹}} = \frac{135.0}{3600}$$
$$\text{Speed}_{\text{ms⁻¹}} = 0.0375$$
$$\therefore \ 135.0\ \text{mh⁻¹} = 0.0375 \ \text{ms⁻¹}$$
Example 5
Convert $165.0\ \text{mh⁻¹}$ to $\text{ms⁻¹}$.
$$\text{Speed}_{\text{ms⁻¹}} = \frac{165.0}{3600}$$
$$\text{Speed}_{\text{ms⁻¹}} = 0.045833$$
$$\therefore \ 165.0\ \text{mh⁻¹} = 0.045833 \ \text{ms⁻¹}$$
