Question

Express the speed 10m per second as km per hour

Answer 1

10 m/s can be expressed as 36km/h.

Here, we are given an expression for speed, that is: 10 meter per second.

Now, as per the rules of mathematics,

1 kilometer = 1000 meters

⇒ 1 meter = 1/1000 kilometers

or 1 meter = 0.001 kilometers

and also, 1 hour = 60 mins

and 1 min = 60 seconds

⇒ 60 mins = 60 × 60 seconds

= 3600 seconds

Thus, 1 hour = 60 mins = 3600 seconds

⇒ 1 second = 1/3600 hours

Now, we need to convert meter per second into kilometer per hour,

1 meter/ 1 second =  $\frac{0.001}{\frac{1}{3600} }$

= (0.001 × 3600)/ 1

= 3.6

This 1 meter per second = 3.6 kilometer per hour

⇒ 10 meter per second = 3.6 × 10 = 36 kilometers per hour

Thus, 10 m/s is 36km/h.
