Convert Miles Per Second to Feet Per Minute (mi/s to ft/min) ▶ Conversion Table
How to convert1 foot per minute (ft/min) = 3.15657E-06 mile per second (mi/s). Foot Per Minute (ft/min) is a unit of Speed used in Standard system. Mile Per Second (mi/s) is a unit of Speed used in Standard system. Foot per minute also can be marked as foot/minute. Miles per second: A unit of speedMiles per second (mi/s) is a unit of speed or velocity in the US customary and imperial systems. It measures how fast an object is moving by calculating the distance traveled in miles divided by the time taken in seconds. For example, if a bullet travels 1 mile in 0.5 seconds, its speed is 2 mi/s. How to convert miles per secondMiles per second can be converted to other units of speed or velocity by using simple conversion factors. Here are some common units and their conversion factors:
Where miles per second are usedMiles per second are mainly used in physics and astronomy to measure the speed or velocity of very fast objects and phenomena. For example, the escape velocity of the Earth is about 11 km/s or about 6.84 mi/s. The orbital velocity of the Earth around the Sun is about 30 km/s or about 18.64 mi/s. The speed of light in a vacuum is about 300000 km/s or about 186282 mi/s. The speed of sound in air at sea level is about 343 m/s or about 0.213139 mi/s. Definition of miles per secondAccording to the US customary and imperial systems definition, one mile per second is the speed of a body that covers a distance of one mile in a time of one second. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:
where v is the speed or velocity in miles per second, s is the distance traveled in miles, and t is the time taken in seconds. History of miles per secondThe concept of speed or velocity has been studied since ancient times by philosophers and scientists such as Aristotle, Galileo, Newton, etc. The mile was originally derived from the Roman mile which was defined as one thousand paces or about 5000 Roman feet. The second was originally defined in terms of the Earth’s rotation as one eighty-six thousand four hundredth of a mean solar day. The combination of these two units resulted in the mile per second as a unit of speed or velocity. The mile per second was officially adopted as part of the US customary and imperial systems in the late 18th century. Example conversions of miles per second to other unitsHere are some examples of converting miles per second to other units of speed or velocity:
