A foot is a unit of length in various systems, including Imperial and U.S. customary systems. Defined as 12 inches, it has historically been used in various cultures, often based on the length of a human foot. The foot was standardized to its current length, 0.3048 meters, by international agreement in the 20th century. Its use persists in many fields, such as construction and aviation, where height, length, and distance measurements are frequent. Despite the global shift towards the metric system, the foot remains an integral part of measurements in English-speaking countries.
Definition of JouleThe joule is a derived unit of energy in the International System of Units. Named after physicist James Prescott Joule, it quantifies energy, work, or heat. One joule is the energy transferred when a force of one newton moves an object one meter, or the energy dissipated as heat when one ampere of electric current passes through a resistance of one ohm for one second. Commonly used in scientific and engineering contexts, it provides a standardized measure for energy-related calculations, essential for understanding and designing systems involving energy transfer.

|---|---|
| 1 ft-lbf/s | 1.35582 J/s |
| 5 ft-lbf/s | 6.7791 J/s |
| 10 ft-lbf/s | 13.5582 J/s |
| 20 ft-lbf/s | 27.1164 J/s |
| 50 ft-lbf/s | 67.791 J/s |
| 100 ft-lbf/s | 135.582 J/s |
| 200 ft-lbf/s | 271.164 J/s |
| 500 ft-lbf/s | 677.91 J/s |
| 1000 ft-lbf/s | 1355.82 J/s |
| 2000 ft-lbf/s | 2711.64 J/s |
1 ft-lbf/s = 1.35582 J/s
1 J/s = 0.737562 ft-lbf/s
Example 1:
Convert 10 ft-lbf/s to J/s:
10 ft-lbf/s = 10 × 1.35582 J/s = 13.5582 J/s
Example 2:
Convert 5 J/s to ft-lbf/s:
5 J/s = 5 × 0.737562 ft-lbf/s = 3.68781 ft-lbf/s
The Foot Pound-force/second to Joule/second Converter has roots in the historical development of energy measurement units. The foot-pound-force, part of the Imperial system, was once widely used in engineering and physics. With the rise of the metric system, Joules became the standard unit of energy. This converter bridges the two systems, reflecting the transition to metrication. Engineers and scientists use it to ensure accurate energy calculations across different regions and applications, enhancing precision and fostering global collaboration.
