Conversion formula

The conversion factor from feet per second to meters per second is 0.3048, which means that 1 foot per second is equal to 0.3048 meters per second:

1 ft/s = 0.3048 m/s

To convert 164 feet per second into meters per second we have to multiply 164 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from feet per second to meters per second. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft/s → 0.3048 m/s

164 ft/s → V_(m/s)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in meters per second:

V_(m/s) = 164 ft/s × 0.3048 m/s

V_(m/s) = 49.9872 m/s

The final result is:

164 ft/s → 49.9872 m/s

We conclude that 164 feet per second is equivalent to 49.9872 meters per second:

164 feet per second = 49.9872 meters per second

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter per second is equal to 0.020005121311056 × 164 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 164 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.020005121311056 meters per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that one hundred sixty-four feet per second is approximately forty-nine point nine eight seven meters per second:

164 ft/s ≅ 49.987 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero two times one hundred sixty-four feet per second.
