📌 Conversion Relationship Between mph and cm/s

To convert mph to cm/s, we use these standard unit relationships:

• 1 mile = 160,934.4 centimeters
• 1 hour = 3600 seconds

So,$$1\ \text{mile/hour} = \frac{160934.4}{3600}\ \text{cm/s}$$1 mile/hour=3600160934.4​ cm/s $$1\ \text{mile/hour} = 44.704\ \text{cm/s}$$1 mile/hour=44.704 cm/s

This gives us the official conversion factor:$$1\ \text{mph} = 44.704\ \text{cm/s}$$1 mph=44.704 cm/s
