What Is This Tool?

This tool helps convert speed values from foot/hour (ft/h), an imperial unit for very slow velocities, to kilometer/hour (km/h), a widely recognized speed unit often used in transport and weather reports.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the speed value in foot/hour (ft/h) into the input field
  • Select foot/hour as the source unit and kilometer/hour as the target unit
  • Click the convert button to see the result expressed in kilometer/hour (km/h)

Key Features

  • Converts speed units from foot/hour to kilometer/hour easily
  • Supports precise expression of very slow velocity measurements
  • Includes practical examples for clarity
  • Browser-based and user-friendly interface

Examples

  • 10 ft/h equals 0.003048 km/h
  • 1000 ft/h equals 0.3048 km/h

Common Use Cases

  • Describing very slow geological or glacial creep speeds
  • Specifying slow actuator or conveyor rates in industry
  • Monitoring settlement or drift rates of structures hourly
  • Comparing low-rate motions with standard speed units used in transport or meteorology

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use foot/hour units specifically for very slow speeds to ensure meaningful results
  • Convert to kilometer/hour when communicating speeds in more common metrics
  • Double-check unit selections to avoid conversion errors
  • Understand that converted values may be very small and less intuitive for fast speeds

Limitations

  • Foot/hour is suitable only for extremely slow speeds and not practical for everyday velocity measurements
  • Converted values to kilometer/hour can be very small and tricky to interpret in general contexts
  • Precision may be limited by the inherently slow scale of foot/hour units

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a foot per hour (ft/h)?
A foot per hour is an imperial speed unit indicating one foot traveled in one hour, primarily used for very slow velocities such as geological creep.

Why convert foot/hour to kilometer/hour?
Converting to kilometer/hour expresses very slow speeds using a more standardized and familiar unit, helpful in transport, weather, and engineering contexts.

Is kilometer/hour an SI unit?
Kilometer/hour is not a base SI unit but is accepted for use with SI and widely used to represent speed in practical applications like traffic and weather.

Key Terminology

Foot/hour (ft/h)
An imperial speed unit representing one foot traveled in one hour, used for measuring very slow velocities.
Kilometer/hour (km/h)
A unit of speed showing the number of kilometers traveled in one hour; widely used in transport and weather.
Conversion Rate
The factor used to change a measurement from one unit to another, here 1 ft/h = 0.0003048 km/h.
