Metres per second to Inches per hour conversion

How to convert metres per second to inches per hour?

Certainly! To convert from meters per second (m/s) to inches per hour (in/hr), you can follow these steps:

1. Convert meters to inches: 1 meter = 39.3701 inches

2. Convert seconds to hours: 1 hour = 3600 seconds

The conversion formula to convert 1 meter per second to inches per hour is: $\text{in/hr} = \text{m/s} \times 39.3701 \times 3600$

Let's apply this to 1 meter per second: $\text{in/hr} = 1 \times 39.3701 \times 3600$ $\text{in/hr} = 141732.36$

So, 1 meter per second is approximately 141,732.36 inches per hour.
