What Is This Tool?

This converter tool allows you to translate speed values from foot/second, a common US customary unit, to meter/minute, a metric-based unit often used in industrial and engineering contexts.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Input the speed value in foot/second (ft/s).
  • Select 'foot/second' as the source unit and 'meter/minute' as the target unit.
  • Click the convert button to display the result in meter/minute (m/min).

Key Features

  • Converts speed measurements between foot/second and meter/minute.
  • Supports applications in manufacturing, engineering, and physics.
  • Browser-based and user-friendly interface for quick conversions.
  • Includes example calculations to guide users.

Examples

  • Convert 2 ft/s to meters per minute: 2 × 18.288 = 36.576 m/min.
  • Convert 5 ft/s to meters per minute: 5 × 18.288 = 91.44 m/min.

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying projectile speeds and muzzle velocities in ballistics.
  • Measuring air or fluid speeds for HVAC and wind tunnel testing.
  • Setting conveyor line speeds and feed rates in manufacturing.
  • Describing linear motion speeds in assembly lines and machining.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Verify the use of foot/second if working in US customary measurement systems.
  • Use meter/minute to better communicate speed in industrial or international settings.
  • Remember this tool converts between these specific units only; further conversions may be needed if other units are required.
  • Be aware of potential rounding differences when working with very high or low speeds.

Limitations

  • Foot/second is mainly used in the US and may not be recognized globally.
  • Meter/minute is a non-SI unit and less common than meter/second in scientific contexts.
  • Conversions may introduce small rounding errors at extreme speed values.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does foot/second measure?
Foot/second (ft/s) measures speed as the distance of one foot traveled in one second and is commonly used in US customary and Imperial systems.

When should I use meter/minute?
Meter/minute is suitable for expressing speeds in manufacturing, machining feed rates, and industrial processes where metric units are preferred.

Is this conversion exact?
The conversion is defined as 1 ft/s equals 18.288 m/min, but small rounding differences may occur with very high or very low speeds.

Key Terminology

Foot/second [ft/s]
A speed unit indicating one foot traveled per second; used mainly in US customary and Imperial systems.
Meter/minute [m/min]
A unit of speed expressing the amount of meters traveled in one minute; commonly used in industrial settings.
Conversion rate
The numerical factor used to translate values from one unit to another; here, 1 ft/s equals 18.288 m/min.
