In summary, to convert km/hr2 to m/s2, you can multiply by 1/12960, and to convert m/s2 to km/hr2, you can multiply by 12960.
0,27m/s2=? km/h2
1m = 1/1000 km
1s = 1/3600 hours

I would really need an answer within 20 minutes :D
I guess if you have for ex. 5 m/s2 in km/h2 you would do
5*(1/1000)/(1/3600)2
if that is correct, how to finish? Do you really have to square 3600 or is there an easier way?

Yep. You have to square 3600. It's pretty easy if you break it up into parts. (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2
(3000 + 600)^2 = 3000^2 + 2(3000)(600) + 600^2 = 9000000 + 3600000 + 360000 = 12960000
Alternatively, (ab)^2 = a^2 * b^2 = 36^2 * 100^2 = 1296 * 10000 = 12960000
(3000 + 600)^2 = 3000^2 + 2(3000)(600) + 600^2 = 9000000 + 3600000 + 360000 = 12960000
Alternatively, (ab)^2 = a^2 * b^2 = 36^2 * 100^2 = 1296 * 10000 = 12960000

More easier method to convert km/hr2 ----> m/s2 is to multiply the value in km/hr2 by 1/12960 .
To do reverse multiply the value in m/s2 by 12960.
So in your case ,
5 m/s2 = 5*12960
= 64800 km/hr2
FAQ: How to transform acceleration from m/s2 to km/h2 and reversed?
How do I convert acceleration from m/s2 to km/h2?
To convert from m/s2 to km/h2, you can use the formula: km/h2 = (m/s2 * 3600) / 1000. This will give you the acceleration in km/h2.
What is the difference between m/s2 and km/h2?
Both m/s2 and km/h2 are units of acceleration, but m/s2 measures acceleration in meters per second squared, while km/h2 measures acceleration in kilometers per hour squared.
Can I reverse the conversion and convert from km/h2 to m/s2?
Yes, you can reverse the conversion by using the formula: m/s2 = (km/h2 * 1000) / 3600. This will give you the acceleration in m/s2.
Why do we need to convert acceleration from m/s2 to km/h2?
Converting acceleration from m/s2 to km/h2 can be useful when working with different units of measurement or when comparing acceleration values from different sources. It can also make calculations and conversions easier in certain situations.
Are there any online tools or calculators that can convert acceleration from m/s2 to km/h2?
Yes, there are many online tools and calculators that can convert acceleration from m/s2 to km/h2. You can simply search for "m/s2 to km/h2 converter" and choose from a variety of options available.
