About Feet per Second
Feet per second (ft/s) is an imperial speed unit commonly used in ballistics, fluid dynamics, and engineering calculations within the United States. Projectile velocities, pipe flow rates, and conveyor belt speeds are often expressed in ft/s in American technical documentation. One foot per second equals exactly 0.3048 meters per second or about 0.6818 miles per hour.
About Knots
The knot (kn) equals one nautical mile per hour or approximately 1.852 kilometers per hour, the universal speed unit for maritime and aviation navigation. Ship speeds, aircraft velocities, and wind speeds in meteorological reports all use knots as their standard measurement. One knot equals exactly 1.15078 miles per hour, reflecting the longer nautical mile compared to the statute mile.
💡 1 knot is about 1.85 km/h — a nautical mile per hour
