Converting from Mach Number ((M)*) to Seconds per Foot (spf) in Speed

What is Mach Number ((M)*)?

Mach number ((M)*) is a unit of speed that compares an object's speed to the speed of sound in the same medium. It is a dimensionless quantity representing the ratio of the speed of an object to the speed of sound.

What is Seconds per Foot (spf)?

Seconds per foot (spf) is a unit of speed that represents the time taken for an object to travel one foot. It is commonly used in applications requiring precise timing or speed measurements.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from Mach number ((M)*) to seconds per foot (spf), you can use the following formula:

spf=M∗0.0008957066

To convert from seconds per foot (spf) to Mach number ((M)*), the formula is:

M=spf∗1116.47878

Examples

1. Converting 3 ((M)*) to spf:

3∗0.0008957066=0.00268712 spf

2. Converting 12 spf to ((M)*):

12∗1116.47878=13.39774536 ((M)*)

3. Converting 13 ((M)*) to spf:

13∗0.0008957066=0.011644192 spf

This page provides a straightforward way to perform conversions between Mach number ((M)*) and seconds per foot (spf) in speed. It can be useful for various calculations and applications requiring speed measurements in different units.
