How to convert meters per second to feet per second

1 meter per second is equal to 3.28084 feet per second:

1 m/s = (1/0.3048) ft/s = 3.28084 ft/s

When a speed V in meters per second is divided by 0.3048, it gives speed in feet per second.

Vft/s = Vm/s / 0.3048


Example

To convert 5 meters per second into feet per second, it is divided by 0.3048:

(5 m/s) / 0.3048 = 16.404199 ft/s

Meters per second

The meters per second is an SI unit of speed (scalar quantity) and velocity (vector quantity). It is equal to the distance traveled a body in meters in one second. The SI unit symbols are m/s, m·s−1, or m s−1, and abbreviated as mps.

Feet per second

The foot per second (plural feet per second) is a unit of speed (scalar quantity) and velocity (vector quantity). It is equal to the the number of feet traveled in one second. The unit symbols are ft/s, fps or ft s-1.
