About these units

Feet per Second (ft/s)

Feet per second is used for projectile speeds and some engineering calculations. 1 ft/s is exactly 0.3048 m/s, and 60 mph is 88 ft/s.

Mach Number (M)

Mach number is speed divided by the local speed of sound; this converter uses 343 m/s, the value in air at 20 °C. Mach 1 at sea level is therefore about 1,235 km/h.
