About Millimeter/Second

The millimeter/second (mm/s) is a unit of speed and velocity. One millimeter/second equals 0.001 metre per seconds. UnitConvertLab converts it against every other speed unit using this exact definition, so results are reproducible to full double precision rather than rounded lookup tables.

Common uses: speed calculations, engineering and science, education.

About Foot/Minute

The foot/minute (ft/min) is a unit of speed and velocity. One foot/minute equals 0.00508 metre per seconds. UnitConvertLab converts it against every other speed unit using this exact definition, so results are reproducible to full double precision rather than rounded lookup tables.

Common uses: speed calculations, engineering and science, education.
