Speed Converter
km/h, mph, knots and m/s.
1 meter per second = 3.280839895 ft/s. Enter any value to convert meters per second (m/s) to feet per second (ft/s), or use the table below for common values.
ft/s = m/s × 3.280839895
Example: 10 m/s = 32.80839895 ft/s. To convert the other way, use m/s = ft/s × 0.3048.
Quick mental estimate: multiply by about 3.3.

The meter per second is the SI unit of speed, used in physics, engineering and for wind speed in weather science.
The foot per second is used in US engineering, ballistics and fluid flow.
Use the formula ft/s = m/s × 3.280839895. For example, 10 m/s = 32.80839895 ft/s.
1 m/s = 3.280839895 ft/s.
Use m/s = ft/s × 0.3048. 1 ft/s = 0.3048 m/s.
