Visual representation of 580 kph compared to other speeds:
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 × 0.621371
- To convert mph to kph: kph = mph × 1.60934
580 kph is an extremely high speed, typically achieved by:
- Ultra high-speed trains
- Fighter jets and some military aircraft
- Supercars under specific conditions
Common speed conversions around 580 kph:
| KPH | MPH | Context |
|---|---|---|
| 500 | 310.7 | Top speed of high-speed trains |
| 580 | 360.43 | Near the speed of sound |
| 700 | 434.9 | Typical speed of fighter jets |
| 900 | 559.2 | Commercial airplane cruising |
| 1200 | 746.5 | Supersonic |
