Convert foot/second to mile/minute
Please provide values below to convert foot/second [ft/s] to mile/minute [mi/min], or Convert mile/minute to foot/second.
1 ft/s = 0.0113636363636 mi/min. To convert foot/second to mile/minute, multiply the value by 0.0113636363636; to go the other way, divide by it (1 mi/min = 88 ft/s). Both units measure speed and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Foot/second
Foot per second (ft/s) is a unit of speed representing the distance of one foot traveled in one second.
History/Origin
The foot per second has been used historically in engineering, physics, and aeronautics, originating from the imperial measurement system where the foot is a standard unit of length. Its usage predates the metric system and has been common in the United States and other countries using imperial units.
Current Use
Today, ft/s is primarily used in fields such as physics, engineering, and aviation to measure speeds, especially in contexts where imperial units are standard. It is also used in sports and safety standards related to speed measurements.
Mile/minute
A unit of speed representing the number of miles traveled per minute.
History/Origin
The mile per minute has been used historically in contexts such as aviation and transportation to measure rapid speeds before the widespread adoption of metric units and modern speed measurements like miles per hour or meters per second.
Current Use
Currently, mile per minute is rarely used in everyday contexts but may appear in specialized fields such as aviation, military, or scientific calculations where high-speed measurements are relevant.
