How to Convert Miles per Hour per Second to Meters per Second Squared
The mile per hour per second and meter per second squared are both units of acceleration. 1 meter per second squared equals 2.2369362921 miles per hour per second. This means to convert miles per hour per second to meters per second squared, you divide by 2.2369362921.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 mph/s to meters per second squared:
We need to convert miles per hour per second to meters per second squared
Since 1 m/s² = 2.2369362921 mph/s, divide by 2.2369362921
5 ÷ 2.2369362921 = 2.2352
5 mph/s = 2.2352 m/s²

About These Units
Mile per Hour per Second (mph/s)
Miles per hour per second (mph/s) is commonly used for vehicle acceleration. A car going 0-60 mph in 6 seconds accelerates at 10 mph/s (4.47 m/s² or 0.46g). Sports cars achieve 15-20 mph/s. One mph/s equals 1.467 ft/s².
Meter per Second Squared (m/s²)
Meters per second squared (m/s²) is the SI unit of acceleration, measuring velocity change per second. Earth's gravity causes 9.81 m/s² acceleration. A car accelerating 0-100 km/h in 10 seconds averages 2.78 m/s². Used in physics, engineering, and motion analysis.
