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 4746 feet per second into meters per second we have to multiply 4746 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

4746 ft/s → V_(m/s)

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

V_(m/s) = 4746 ft/s × 0.3048 m/s

V_(m/s) = 1446.5808 m/s

The final result is:

4746 ft/s → 1446.5808 m/s

We conclude that 4746 feet per second is equivalent to 1446.5808 meters per second:

4746 feet per second = 1446.5808 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 0.00069128527075708 × 4746 feet per second.

Another way is saying that 4746 feet per second is equal to 1 ÷ 0.00069128527075708 meters per second.

Approximate result

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

4746 ft/s ≅ 1446.581 m/s

An alternative is also that one meter per second is approximately zero point zero zero one times four thousand seven hundred forty-six feet per second.
