Convert Feet per second to Centimeters per second

Feet per second → Centimeters per second
ft/s × 30.48 = cm/s cm/s × 0.0328084 = ft/s

To convert feet per second (ft/s) to centimeters per second (cm/s), multiply the feet per second value by 30.48. 1 ft/s = 30.48 cm/s, and 1 cm/s = 0.0328084 ft/s. The conversion is a linear scaling with no offset, so the same factor applies to any value.

Going the other way? Convert cm/s to ft/s.
