Convert foot/minute to yard/hour
Please provide values below to convert foot/minute [ft/min] to yard/hour [yd/h], or Convert yard/hour to foot/minute.
1 ft/min = 20 yd/h. To convert foot/minute to yard/hour, multiply the value by 20; to go the other way, divide by it (1 yd/h = 0.05 ft/min). Both units measure speed and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 ft/min = 20 yd/h
- 1 yd/h = 0.05 ft/min
- 10 ft/min = 200 yd/h
- 100 ft/min = 2000 yd/h
How to Convert Foot/minute to Yard/hour
1 ft/min = 20 yd/h
Example: convert 15 ft/min to yd/h:
15 ft/min = 15 × 20 yd/h = 300 yd/h

Foot/minute
Foot per minute (ft/min) is a unit of speed representing the number of feet traveled in one minute.
History/Origin
The foot per minute has been used historically in engineering and construction to measure speed, especially in contexts where imperial units are standard. Its usage predates the widespread adoption of metric units.
Current Use
Today, ft/min is primarily used in fields such as HVAC, ventilation, and certain engineering applications to measure airflow or movement speed where imperial units are preferred.
Yard/hour
Yard per hour (yd/h) is a unit of speed representing the distance of one yard traveled in one hour.
History/Origin
The yard has been a traditional unit of length in the imperial and US customary systems, and units like yard per hour have historically been used for measuring slow speeds, especially in contexts like textiles and manufacturing. Its usage has declined with the adoption of metric units.
Current Use
Yard per hour is rarely used today, primarily in specialized or historical contexts. It may still be referenced in certain industries or for conversions involving imperial units, but it is largely replaced by metric units such as meters per second or kilometers per hour.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 foot/minute in yard/hour?
