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 298 feet per second into meters per second we have to multiply 298 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

298 ft/s → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 298 ft/s × 0.3048 m/s

V_(m/s) = 90.8304 m/s

The final result is:

298 ft/s → 90.8304 m/s

We conclude that 298 feet per second is equivalent to 90.8304 meters per second:

298 feet per second = 90.8304 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 0.011009529849037 × 298 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 298 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.011009529849037 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-eight feet per second is approximately ninety point eight three meters per second:

298 ft/s ≅ 90.83 m/s

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