Speed is the rate at which an object moves in a specific direction. The two most common units for measuring speed are:
- Kilometers per hour (kph): Used in most countries worldwide that follow the metric system.
- Miles per hour (mph): Primarily used in the United States and the United Kingdom.
The conversion between these units is based on the relationship between kilometers and miles:
1 mile = 1.60934 kilometers
Therefore:
- To convert kph to mph: mph = kph × 0.6214
- To convert mph to kph: kph = mph × 1.6093
362 kph is a very high speed, typically achieved by:
- High-performance sports cars and supercars
- High-speed trains like the Japanese Shinkansen or French TGV
- Formula 1 racing cars on straightaways
Common speed conversions around 225 mph:
| KPH | MPH | Context |
|---|---|---|
| 300 | 186.4 | Bugatti Veyron top speed |
| 320 | 198.8 | Shanghai Maglev train top speed |
| 362 | 225 | TGV train record speed |
| 400 | 248.5 | Formula 1 straight-line speed |
| 430 | 267.2 | ThrustSSC land speed record |
