What Is This Tool?

This tool converts speed values from meter per hour (m/h), a very slow linear velocity unit, to foot per minute (ft/min), a commonly used imperial speed unit. It is designed for users needing to translate slow speeds measured over hours into more practical values per minute.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the speed value in meter/hour (m/h) you want to convert
  • Select meter/hour as the input unit if not preselected
  • Choose foot/minute (ft/min) as the output unit
  • Click the convert button to get the equivalent speed in ft/min
  • Review and apply the converted value as needed

Key Features

  • Converts speed from meter/hour to foot/minute easily
  • Provides clear unit definitions and context
  • Includes practical examples for quick reference
  • Supports engineering, manufacturing, and building services use cases
  • Browser-based and user-friendly interface

Examples

  • 10 meter/hour equals 0.546806649 foot/minute
  • 100 meter/hour equals 5.46806649 foot/minute

Common Use Cases

  • Setting slow conveyor or feed rates in manufacturing processes
  • Measuring elevator travel speeds in building services
  • Monitoring gradual ground or structural displacement over long periods
  • Checking air velocities in HVAC ducts and ventilation systems
  • Controlling laboratory equipment or process machinery movements

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure you understand the difference between hourly and minute-based speed units
  • Use the tool to translate very slow speeds for better practical interpretation
  • Apply conversions carefully when monitoring slow structural or equipment motions
  • Remember the distinction between SI and imperial unit systems when converting
  • Validate conversions with actual measurement contexts for accuracy

Limitations

  • Meter per hour measures speeds over long time intervals while foot per minute is a shorter time unit
  • Interpretation requires attention to unit system differences between SI and imperial
  • Conversion may not suit high-speed applications due to the slow speed context of meter/hour
  • Care is needed when comparing or combining values across different time scales

Frequently Asked Questions

What does meter per hour measure?
Meter per hour measures very slow linear velocity as the distance of one meter traveled in one hour.

Why convert meter/hour to foot/minute?
Converting to foot/minute makes it easier to express and use slow speeds in practical contexts like manufacturing and building services.

Is foot/minute an SI unit?
No, foot/minute is an imperial unit commonly used in engineering and building applications.

Key Terminology

Meter/hour [m/h]
A derived SI speed unit representing one meter traveled in one hour, used for very slow velocities.
Foot/minute [ft/min]
An imperial speed unit representing one foot traveled in one minute, used for low to moderate speeds in engineering.
Speed
The rate at which an object covers distance over a time interval.
