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 309 feet per second into meters per second we have to multiply 309 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

309 ft/s → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 309 ft/s × 0.3048 m/s

V_(m/s) = 94.1832 m/s

The final result is:

309 ft/s → 94.1832 m/s

We conclude that 309 feet per second is equivalent to 94.1832 meters per second:

309 feet per second = 94.1832 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 0.01061760483823 × 309 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 309 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.01061760483823 meters per second.

Approximate result

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

309 ft/s ≅ 94.183 m/s

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