Arrival Time | Departure Time | Average Speed
Average Speed Calculator
Calculate the average speed from distance and duration of several route sections. The calculation can be done with up to ten sections. Please enter per section two of the three values, distance in kilometers or miles, duration in hours and minutes and the speed in kilometers or miles per hour. The third value of each line will be calculated. In the bottom line, the total distance, total duration and the average speed will be shown. If the distance is in miles, the speed is in miles per hour. If the distance is in kilometers, the speed is in kilometers per hour.
Example: for a section of 159 kilometers, one hour and fifty minutes are needed. For the next section with the length 87 kilometers, 45 minutes are needed. So the total distance of 246 kilometers takes two hours and 35 minutes. The average speed on the route was 95.2 km/h.
Depending on what you want to know, it may or may not be useful to include breaks in the times. For example, if you took a 10-minute break on a three-hour journey of 250 kilometers, the average speed without a break, i.e. for 2 hours and 50 minutes, is 88.2 km/h. With a break, it is 83.3 km/h. Such a break on such a route can be considered normal, so it can be included in future planning and the lower average speed can be calculated. The journey time without a break can be called the net travel time, and that with a break can be called the gross travel time.
If a duration without a distance is entered, then this duration is calculated entirely as a break, and the average speed is then reduced accordingly. A distance without a duration, on the other hand, is of course not possible and is therefore not included in the calculation.
The time can be entered in the form of hours and minutes or just as one of the two values, for example 90 minutes or 1.5 hours instead of 1 hour 30 minutes. The output is in the form of hours and minutes.
