  • Multiple Unit Systems
  • 100% Free to Use
  • Works on Any Device

Common Mistakes

  • 100 km/h is ~62 mph, not 100 mph
  • m/s values are smaller than km/h (x3.6)
  • Knots vs km/h vs mph are different
  • Use correct conversion for athletics

Professional Tips

  • Divide km/h by 1.6 for approx mph
  • 10 m/s = 36 km/h
  • Aviation uses knots
