How to convert meters per second to feet per second
Speed combines distance and elapsed time. Knots use the international nautical mile (1852 m), and mph uses the international statute mile (1609.344 m).
ft/s = m/s ÷ 0.3048One foot per second corresponds to 0.3048 meters per second, so divide by that figure. Displayed constants may be rounded; the converter uses the stored factor before rounding the result.

Sources and precision
Table results are rounded to 8 significant digits; formula constants may be rounded to 10. Worked example answers use 6 significant digits. The converter starts at 6 significant digits and lets you change display precision. Calculations use the stored factors without intermediate rounding. Exact unit definitions do not make an input measurement more precise; conventional and measured factors follow the assumptions stated here.
