How to use this Kilometer/second to Foot/second Converter 🤔
Follow these steps to convert given speed from the units of Kilometer/second to the units of Foot/second.
Enter the input Kilometer/second value in the text field.
The calculator converts the given Kilometer/second into Foot/second in realtime ⌚ using the conversion formula, and displays under the Foot/second label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Foot/second value is re-calculated, just like that.
You may copy the resulting Foot/second value using the Copy button.
To view a detailed step by step calculation of the conversion, click on the View Calculation button.
You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.
What is the Formula to convert Kilometer/second to Foot/second?
The formula to convert given speed from Kilometer/second to Foot/second is:
Substitute the given value of speed in kilometer/second, i.e., Speed(Kilometer/second) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the speed in foot/second, i.e., Speed(Foot/second).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
A spacecraft travels at a speed of 8 kilometers per second. Convert this speed from kilometers per second to Foot/second.
Answer:
Given:
The speed in kilometer/second is:
Speed(Kilometer/second) = 8
Formula:
The formula to convert speed from kilometer/second to foot/second is:
Substitute given weight Speed(Kilometer/second) = 15 in the above formula.
Speed(Foot/second) = 15 × 3.280839895 / 0.001
Speed(Foot/second) = 49212.5984
Final Answer:
Therefore, 15 km/s is equal to 49212.5984 ft/s.
The speed is 49212.5984 ft/s, in foot/second.

Kilometer/second
The kilometer per second (km/s) is a unit of speed that represents how many kilometers an object travels in one second. This unit is often used in astronomy and space science to describe the velocities of celestial bodies and spacecraft, as these speeds are far beyond those encountered in everyday life.
Foot/second
The foot per second (ft/s) is a unit of speed commonly used in the United States to measure the velocity of objects, particularly in engineering and physics. It indicates how many feet are covered in one second and is often used in contexts such as projectile motion or fluid flow.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What is the formula for converting Kilometer/second to Foot/second in Speed?
The formula to convert Kilometer/second to Foot/second in Speed is:
Kilometer/second * 3.280839895 / 0.001
2. Is this tool free or paid?
This Speed conversion tool, which converts Kilometer/second to Foot/second, is completely free to use.
3. How do I convert Speed from Kilometer/second to Foot/second?
To convert Speed from Kilometer/second to Foot/second, you can use the following formula:
Kilometer/second * 3.280839895 / 0.001
For example, if you have a value in Kilometer/second, you substitute that value in place of Kilometer/second in the above formula, and solve the mathematical expression to get the equivalent value in Foot/second.
