How to convert meters per second to feet per second
Multiply the value in m/s by 3.28083989501: the result is in ft/s.
Where these two units are used
The meter per second is the SI unit of speed, and yet no road sign shows it: it lives in physics and in wind readings. The foot per second serves American ballistics, where muzzle velocity is always quoted this way, and free-fall calculations. Free fall is spoken in both: 9.81 m/s² on one side, 32.2 ft/s² on the other, and it is the speed a dropped object gains every second, depending which table you read.
