Enter the distance in miles and the time in seconds into the calculator to determine the speed in miles per hour (MPH). This calculator helps to convert the time taken to travel a certain distance from seconds to MPH.
Seconds to MPH Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the speed in miles per hour (MPH) from distance and time in seconds.
MPH = frac{Distance (miles)}{Time (seconds) / 3600}Variables:
- MPH is the speed in miles per hour.
- Distance is the distance traveled in miles.
- Time is the time taken to travel the distance in seconds.
To calculate MPH, divide the distance in miles by the time in seconds and then multiply by 3600 to convert seconds to hours.
What is Seconds to MPH?
Seconds to MPH is a way of converting the time taken to travel a certain distance into a speed measurement in miles per hour. This is useful for various applications, such as determining the speed of a vehicle or an athlete over a known distance.
How to Calculate Speed in MPH?
The following steps outline how to calculate the speed in MPH from distance and time in seconds.
- First, determine the distance traveled in miles.
- Next, determine the time taken to travel that distance in seconds.
- Use the formula above to calculate the speed in MPH.
- Finally, enter the distance and time into the calculator to get the speed in MPH.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
Distance traveled (miles) = 1 mile
Time taken (seconds) = 120 seconds
