How to convert feet per second to centimeters per second
1 ft/s = 30.48 cm/s, so multiply by 30.48 to go from feet per second to centimeters per second. Going the other way, 1 cm/s = 0.0328083989501 ft/s.
cm/s = ft/s × 30.48 ft/s = cm/s × 0.0328083989501
Worked example:
1 ft/s = 30.48 cm/s 5 × 30.48 = 152.4 cm/s
