Conversion number between walking speed and metre per second [m/s] is 1.4. This means, that walking speed is bigger unit than metre per second.
Switch to reverse conversion:
from metre per second to walking speed conversion
walking speed |
Result in metre per second
?If conversion between walking speed to metre-per-second and metre-per-second to metre per second is exactly definied, high precision conversion from walking speed to metre per second is enabled.
Since definition contain rounded number(s) too, there is no sense for high precision calculation, but if you want, you can enable it. Keep in mind, that converted number will be inaccurate due this rounding error!

Definition of walking speed unit: ≈ 1.4 m/s. With average walking speed, you walk around 5 km in 1 hour. In more than one literature, the 1.4 m/s speeds are used in calculations. The link presented in the source has calculated this average walking speed from the average of 3 additional literature.
Definition of metre per second unit: ≡ 1 m / 1 s. Derived SI unit, although in everyday life km/h or mph is a more common unit. How many metres a body moves in a second. The speed of a walking person is approx. 1.4 m/s.
