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 293 feet per second into meters per second we have to multiply 293 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

293 ft/s → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 293 ft/s × 0.3048 m/s

V_(m/s) = 89.3064 m/s

The final result is:

293 ft/s → 89.3064 m/s

We conclude that 293 feet per second is equivalent to 89.3064 meters per second:

293 feet per second = 89.3064 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 0.011197405785028 × 293 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 293 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.011197405785028 meters per second.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that two hundred ninety-three feet per second is approximately eighty-nine point three zero six meters per second:

293 ft/s ≅ 89.306 m/s

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