Wind Conversion

From the user, we are given a wind value and the unit to convert. To convert between miles per hour (mph) and knots (kts) :

W indkts = 0.8689762 ? W indmph

W indmph = 1.1507794 ? W indkts

To convert between miles per hour (mph) and meters per second (ms ) :

W indm s

=

0.44704

?

W indmph

W indmph

=

2.23694

?

W indm s

( ) To convert between miles per hour (mph) and feet per second

ft s

:

W indft = 1.46667 ? W indmph s

W indmph = 0.681818 ? W indft s

To convert between miles per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (khm) :

W indkm = 1.609344 ? W indmph h

W indmph = 0.621371 ? W indkm h
