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 3451 feet per second into meters per second we have to multiply 3451 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

3451 ft/s → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 3451 ft/s × 0.3048 m/s

V_(m/s) = 1051.8648 m/s

The final result is:

3451 ft/s → 1051.8648 m/s

We conclude that 3451 feet per second is equivalent to 1051.8648 meters per second:

3451 feet per second = 1051.8648 meters per second

Alternative conversion
