Speed Conversion: Foot per Second (fps) to Mile per Minute (mpm)

What is Foot per second (fps)

Foot per second (fps) is a unit of speed commonly used in the Imperial system. It measures the distance traveled in feet per second.

What is Mile per minute (mpm)

Mile per minute (mpm) is a unit of speed that measures the distance traveled in miles per minute, often used in various applications where a lower unit of speed is more appropriate.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from foot per second (fps) to mile per minute (mpm), you can use the following formula:

mpm=fps×0.01136364

To convert from mile per minute (mpm) to foot per second (fps), use the formula:

fps=mpm×88

Examples

1. Converting 3 fps to mpm:

3×0.01136364=0.03409091 (mpm)

2. Converting 13 mpm to fps:

13×88=1144 (fps)

3. Converting 14 fps to mpm:

14×0.01136364=0.1590909 (mpm)

4. Converting 3 mpm to fps:

3×88=264 (fps)

Conclusion

Use the provided formulas as a reference to convert between foot per second (fps) and mile per minute (mpm) accurately. This conversion can be useful in various scenarios where speed needs to be expressed in different units.
