How to Convert FPS to M/S
Converting feet per second to meters per second is common in ballistics and physics. One foot per second equals exactly 0.3048 meters per second.
To convert fps to m/s, multiply the fps value by 0.3048. For example, 100 ft/s x 0.3048 = 30.48 m/s. This conversion is used in projectile motion, bullet velocities, and scientific calculations requiring SI units.
Understanding this conversion bridges imperial and metric velocity measurements.
Quick Tips
- 1 mile = 1.609 km (miles are bigger)
- 1 kg = 2.205 lbs (roughly double + 10%)
- Temperature: (°F - 32) × 5/9 = °C
