What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to change speed measurements from meter per hour (m/h), a metric unit used for expressing very slow velocities, into foot per second (ft/s), an imperial unit commonly used in various physics and engineering contexts.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the speed value in meter per hour (m/h) that you want to convert
  • Select 'meter/hour [m/h]' as the input unit and 'foot/second [ft/s]' as the output unit
  • Click on the convert button to get the speed in foot per second
  • Review the result for use in your engineering or scientific calculations

Key Features

  • Converts speed values from meter/hour to foot/second accurately
  • Supports applications in manufacturing, civil engineering, and lab instrumentation
  • Browser-based tool enabling quick and easy conversions
  • Useful for translating slow speeds into customary units for U.S.-based engineering

Examples

  • 10 meter/hour converts to 0.009113444 foot/second
  • 100 meter/hour converts to 0.09113444 foot/second

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying slow conveyor or feed rates where hourly throughput is practical
  • Monitoring gradual ground displacement or structural settlement rates
  • Performing lab experiments involving slow controlled movements with metric units
  • Converting metric speed data to imperial units in U.S. engineering projects
  • Estimating projectile velocities or air flow speeds using customary units

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure units within your dataset are consistent to avoid errors
  • Be aware that results may produce very small decimal values due to the slow speeds involved
  • Use this conversion primarily when imperial units are required for compatibility or reporting
  • Double-check conversions where precision is critical due to the small magnitude of the conversion rate

Limitations

  • Results often include very small decimals which need careful interpretation
  • Precision may be limited by the tiny size of the conversion rate between units
  • Mixing metric and imperial units without proper conversion can cause misinterpretation
  • The unit meter/hour is suited only for very slow speeds, while foot/second is better for faster velocities

Frequently Asked Questions

What does meter per hour measure?
Meter per hour (m/h) measures very slow speed, indicating the distance traveled in meters over one hour.

In which fields is foot per second commonly used?
Foot per second (ft/s) is commonly used in U.S. engineering, ballistics, HVAC design, and physics experiments where imperial units are preferred.

Why might the converted values be very small?
Because meter/hour measures slow speeds and foot/second is a faster unit, the resulting values after conversion may be very small decimals.

Key Terminology

Meter per hour [m/h]
A unit of speed expressing one meter traveled in one hour, used for very slow velocities.
Foot per second [ft/s]
A speed unit in the US customary and Imperial systems defined as one foot traveled in one second.
Conversion Rate
The factor used to convert a quantity from one unit to another, here 1 meter/hour equals 0.0009113444 foot/second.
