Meters per second squared to feet per second squared
Type a value in m/s² to get it in ft/s² instantly.
32.81ft/s²
That's 1.02× as hard as Earth’s gravity, while a roller coaster is 4× harder. Kept up, that reaches 100 km/h in about 2.778 seconds.
Convert the other way: ft/s² to m/s²
What it means
How hard is that?
One g is the acceleration of gravity at the Earth’s surface, 9.80665 m/s² exactly.
The math
How to convert m/s² to ft/s²
To convert meters per second squared to feet per second squared, multiply by 3.28084.
Example: 10 m/s² × 3.28084 = 32.8084 ft/s².
In the other direction, 1 ft/s² = 0.3048 m/s².
