Convert 16.2 kilometers per hour into meters per second.

To convert kilometers per hour to meters per second, perform dimensional analysis. Remember that:

1 km = 1000 m
1 hr = 3600 seconds

Using these conversion, perform dimensional analysis: 

16.2 km/ hr (1000m/1km) (1hr/60 sec) = 4.5 m/s

The analysis basically just uses the conversion factors and canceling of units. The final answer is 4.5 m/s.
